So is this a joke or is the new version of Firefox supposed to be this bad?

Why Mozilla? Why is the new Firefox icon so much uglier and why does everything look like Windows 10? It's a very good way of making sure I and many others will not use Firefox in the future! If you're trying to loose the supporters you are doing a damn good job of it! I actually think the first iteration of the Firefox icon/logo was way better then the new one.. The previous one before this now new icon was acceptable and the one before that was great! Now it looks like trash! The tab and address list is so ugly and clumsy in the new version and all my Extensions like FTP and IRC chat is now incompatible.. A fast browser does not need to be ugly.. Fix it and get back the supporters! :-(

Support Volunteers can't make changes to Firefox , but we can help you with troubleshooting your question. Web Extensions are evolving and many of them are changing to be compatible with the new Firefox 57. Tracking them here: http://bit.ly/2j0Anlj. To submit suggestions for new or changed features, may I suggest: Feedback: https://qsurvey.mozilla.com/s3/FirefoxInput/ If you have a bug, file a bug report. Bug Writing Guidelines : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/QA/Bug_writing_guidelines

Please read, I guess you missed this : https://www.howtogeek.com/333230/why-firefox-had-to-kill-your-favorite-extension/ and this how to make it look different and suit your needs better : https://www.howtogeek.com/333110/how-to-customize-firefox-quantum-and-remove-the-white-space-around-the-title-bar/ so got that down how about this : Here's a more comprehensive project which affects not only tabs but brings back the old "grid-style" options menu. https://github.com/axydavid/FirefoxUI/blob/master/README.md

It isn't completely possible to use the Australis design with Firefox 57, but depending on what you want, you might be able to customize the UI to look more like the old one: This project: https://github.com/wilfredwee/photon-australis lets you have the old tab bar appearance back in Firefox 57. You can remove the space around the address bar by right-clicking on the spaces, and choosing "remove from toolbar". Note the Black Theme is just a Example and can be found in Customize.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
