So, since the last time I had this issue with the MASSIVE spacing in the bookmarks and drop down, and the lack of actual tabs showing in a definitive way, I went back to #89 (using W10) and stopped with the automatic updates.

Then imagine my surprise when right in the middle of typing an email all my tabs closed, so I go back and open a window and it says that I have updated to #99..!?

And, again, I have the issue of the MASSIVE SPACING in my bookmarks and drop down menus, yes of course I went back and change the config, etc, etc and still NOT FIXED!

What is going on with this, why is it that hard for the people developing this, to understand that we DO NOT NEED the MASSIVE SPACING in the drop down menus, and why in gods name has this not been actually FIXED, instead of trying these "work arounds"..

Simple solution, if it ain't broke, DON'T FIX IT!

I just don't have the time to constantly come here and spend hours trying to get these CONSTANT NOT NEEDED UPGRADES fixed..!

Is there an actual true fix for this constant issue..?

It was a deliberate change and I doubt it will be reversed. There's a partial 'workaround' for bookmarks (see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/compact-mode-workaround-firefox) but you really need to use userChrome.css; relevant links in the answer below. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1346582#answer-1434487

I am done, and out of here, it is obvious the these so called developers care nothing about user interface, firefox is nothing but utter trash, and I will be treating it as such.

Just about the dumbest thing I have ever seen..!
