@mozilla why do tabs now use more screen space than before.
Before the last update it was nice, small rectangles, now it's big blobs with plenty unused space in between.
Is there any way to revert that in the Android App?
I want to use the space efficiently.

Ah, Enable secret menue via the about page and tapping the logo it is, then turn off that shit with some random toggles in nimbus experiments (why is control enabled the thing that turns the new stuff off?).
That didn't help with the tabs, but the rest of the UI is back to not driving me insane.
Why do you do that?

There has been concern about Firefox evolving into “a modern AI browser,” but now Firefox developer says AI will be Opt-In, plus a kill switch to banish AI.

This is a good thing.

I recently discovered search fragments on HTML links, and thought I could use them on my sites for internal linking, but …

It was disabled in Firefox. It worked in Epiphany (webkit), but not in Firefox. By chance, I checked the configuration, and it was disabled. Why?

Firefox ESR from Debian stable — config key: dom.text_fragments.enabled

Search fragments on HTML links are codes at the end of a link, like: "#::text=SearchTerm".

State institutions of the Republic of Venice - History Walks in Venice

The Republic of Venice changed continuously as conditions inside and outside of it changed, until it gradually found its final form in the 1300s and 1400s.

Ok, so how do we fork Firefox successfully into a more user-aligned nonprofit, funded by donations and non-browser-touching halo services, that’s still pragmatic in nudging surveillance capitalism in the right direction without losing compatibility or being complicit, and bring Servo back into inner circle?

Proton’s new foundation is a strong contender to lead a fork.

What other ideas do you have?
