    Honestlly, I’m ambivalent on the navigation bar change. It is quite tall but sometimes helpful.

    As for the url bar, thank GOD they put the full URL back. I think this all “better against phishing” is BS and most users aren’t looking anyhow. If you need to at all differentiate it, but the domain in bold and let the rest of the url be in normal font. But for the love of cake don’t have ONLY the domain. I can’t even explain how frustrating that is. Please keep the full URL mozilla.

    Less screen real estate for the website and we get… Let’s see… A back button that is already handled by the system? A new tab button that saves an entire click?

    Sure hope there will be an option to keep the current design…

      Though if they’re smart about this, they’ll remove that the back gesture goes back a webpage, and instead make it go back a screen (say back into settings or home or out of the app), so it’s consistent with other apps.

        Consistent with other apps is going one step back like it is handled now. I don’t know apps acting in another way

      I’m pretty sure that’s just Firefox for Android, but without some of the proprietary and telemetry stuff So you’ll get it around when the stable version of Firefox does

    This is an okay starting point, but hopefully they make it optional and configurable.

    They could learn from Vivaldi.
