OK folks, I updated Firefox from older ESR and now cannot change tab width. I have tried about:config/tab min and tab max. I have tried CSS .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned]) { max-width: 100px !important; min-width: 50px !important; None of these work. Suggestions?

There is a pref to set the min-width.

  • browser.tabs.tabMinWidth

In Firefox 69 and later you need to set this pref to true on the about:config page to enable userChrome.css and userContent.css in the chrome folder.

  • toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets = true

Also did that, they are smaller as I wanted but.....

This led to unexpected behavior with a few tabs on the left, a few on the right and the + (open a new tab) anywhere from the center to the right side depending on how many tabs are open.
