Disctracting Address Bar + Tabs

Hi!

Is it possible to hide the address bar entirely when entering full screen. When I use Safari I have the option to hide everything except the page i am looking at, this makes reading manga really nice and distraction free.

Obviously I'd prefer to use Firefox so I was wondering if this is possible in settings or is a planned feature in the future.

Thank you for your help.

Do you see "Hide Toolbars" if you right click in empty space of a toolbar when you are in full screen mode?

See also this pref in about:config.

  • full-screen-api.macos-native-full-screen

You can open about:config via the location/address bar. On the warning page, click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.
