Why when hovering over tabs the link appears? I got rid of preview, how do I get rid of link?

Gekose oplossing

When you hover over a tab it will always show its full title below as it most likely won't fit on that tab itself.

Default behaviour is now to also display the link and a preview as well.

You've obviously discovered that setting browser.tabs.hoverPreview.showThumbnails in about:config to false gets rid of the preview.

To remove the link set browser.tabs.hoverPreview.enabled to false as well. In fact this gets rid of both the link and the preview.

See picture below for what the various combinations do.
