How do I make it so that unpinned tabs do not have the scroll function and instead squish.

I just switched from Vivaldi, which is Chromium based, and I really do not like the weird arrows to go through unpinned tabs. I have so many pinned tabs that I cannot even see what the tabs are that are unpinned. If I have to keep that, I will, but I would prefer for it to squish like most.

I have included some pictures of what I mean:

If you have that many pinned tabs then there is not much left for normal tabs and even with the scroll bars missing the tabs would be that small that you wouldn't be able to click them. You can use the List all Tabs drop-down list (down arrow next to the new tab '+'). Other possibilities are CSS code in userChrome.css to make the pinned tabs smaller and possibly hide the window caption buttons.

Do you have the title bar and menu bar hidden to make them appear on the Tab bar or is this a Full Screen Mode screenshot since that isn't clear from the screenshot ?
