Why did you ruin firefox, I've been a long time user, the new dpi mode it's terrible, I set the dpi to 1.0 like ppl suggest and yet it's horrible.

I've disabled dpi scalling set it to 1.22 that's about as close to normal as I can get, however get massive tabs.

Seriously no one I can see complains about scalling, I use a higher dpi to read text in the os better, nosquint to make ff text bigger, I don't want the nav bar to take up quarter of the screen.

Chrome, ie and safari don't look stupid in the same dpi, honestly guys, just leave it alone, I'm sticking with version 21, to see if 23 in any better, if not ill force myself to get used to something else.

Feel free to delete this, as its not a question more of a rant. Ppl hate change when change is dumb and this was a dumb change.

I created an account to complain / notify of this same issue.

Have been a long time user / supporter of FF and Mozilla initiatives, but this may be the final straw if the change isn't reverted.

Basically in a default Windows 7 set-up FF by is +2 zoom that other web browsers are, which makes browsing the net absolutely horrible.
