You can consider to access the tabs via the list all tabs button.

You see the "List All Tabs" button in current Firefox versions if there are that many tabs open that you get the Tab bar scroll buttons appearing.

The Custom Tab Width extension adds CSS rules to adjust the tab width settings as set by the browser.tabs.tabMinWidth and browser.tabs.tabMaxWidth prefs on the about:config page.


You can achieve the same with code in userChrome.css. The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
