Fennec is/was the codename for firefox on android
It's had tabs for years though?
On tablet but on mobile I haven't seen it so far. Moreover, it's about the rest, not tabs in particular
Is your phone on fucking android 3 I have had firefox tabs on my phones for at least 4 years.
Fennec is also the name of a privacy focused Firefox Mobile fork available on F-Droid, which is what I thought you were referring to.
It is roughly the same
That's not an explanation for this post. Firefox had tabs for years, even on mobile and you posted a random ass GNU picture. ???
always existed
Are you mixing it up with Firefox Focus? Because that one is very minimal in features and ui by design. The normal Firefox for Android has had tabs, extensions and otherwise been a fully usable mobile browser for years
There's an ui improvement. Tabs aren't the main focus here. And afaik tabs were only a thing on tablets, not phones
What are you talking about?
Maybe OP is talking about the (maybe new?) explicit tab bar on Firefox for Android? I like it at least.
Yes, and the other new UI stuff that can be seen in my screenshot. Yours looks to be the old one. E.g. the home button is finally gone.
