It’s so beautiful I might cry.
I do not understand. Could someone explain what’s happening?
Firefox is very busy at the top. It has like 2 or 3 layers, one for the tabs, another for the bookmarks. This person removed the extra crap and gained some space on the top of their browser window.
They got MS Edge like vertical tabs going, which after also using for nearly a year now I will say should be the default setup on wide/desktop formats.
We got more horizontal space than vertical in 16:9 and so on, so it maks no sense to have a second horizontal bar taking up precious vertical space when we can trivially use vertical tabs to use up the abundant space instead. More so because most websites use only a tiny fraction of the horizontal space in their layout anyways (case in point, Lemmy renders the same width whether I got vertical tabs or not).
Ever since MS Edge came out I’ve been looking for this in other browsers, and at least in Firefox I can do it myself, I just wish it was an official thing.

To be fair, vertical tabs has been possible in Firefox for way longer than Edge has even existed. For example this add-on is more than a decade old.
Do you have the css for this somewhere? I’d love to see it
Everyone here seeing this: “Wow so sleek, amazing!”
Meanwhile, Mozilla: “Yeah so we’re going to remove compact title bars in favor of touch friendly nonsense. OK. Fine. We will just hide it in about:config until later when we will silently remove it.”
make the task bar vertical for more vertical space
I cannot break these 30 years of habit, my taskbar is going nowhere, lol.
The other thing is that I have two monitors with separate taskbars, and as much clearance as that saves me vertically I just can’t envision a good setup for them. Both in the middle leaves and ugly block in the middle of my screen. Both on the outside means in the event I need go travel from one to the other I’m crossing a huge distance. Each on the left or right just looks awkwardly unbalanced to me and not aesthetically pleasing.
hi, i loved your Firefox layout, can you please upload or provide the css for same. I would love to implement on my system
