I haven’t really paid much attention to the UI changes, but now that I do look at it I kinda like the round “tabs” because the active one stands out more than it used to (in dark mode, BTW).
Still inferior to way back when they looked ‘attached’ to the browser viewport, like physical manila folder tabs, of course.
I don’t even use tab groups, I rarely have more than three open. I hadn’t even noticed the rounding until this post. I think I use the internet very differently to some people here.
Agreed! I don’t know if this perspective is the minority, or if it’s just that the chronic tab openers are overrepresented in meme communities, but I am flabbergasted by the folks who have dozens of tabs open at a time, if not more. Like, I’m ADHD as all hell, so I get that angle, but do these people not have anxiety as a co-morbidity? Once I stop being able to tell from an immediate glance which tab belongs to which train of thought, I have to nuke it and start over.
at least once a year, I will try to clean up my bookmarks. I still have thousands to go through from 15 years of browsing the internet lol. (yeah I’m a “young” fellow compared to some here)
idk why I think it was needed to save to bookmarks the 300+ tabs of right clicking interesting articles while diving TVTropes back then, and I still have not deleted those 600+ bookmarks.
The behavior for that seems slightly different. It’s possible it was a bug that was already fixed too (or buggy extension even). but, I did originally think that. It’s not a big deal, and only noticed it recently.
But even after reading it, it seems it needs to be a deliberate action, not automatically grouping. In the more general support page for tab groups (linked at the bottom of that page), mozilla says AI enhanced tab groups started in version 141.
I honestly haven’t had any issues with any of the changes. Other than the new tab grouping or whatever that is meant to be

Yeah I’m usually on the hate train for stuff like this and I have no problem with the newest redesign. Been using since pre-quantum update too.

They’re good for the tabs you pretend you’ll ever get back to
That’s what bookmarks are for.
But some things are not good enough for bookmarks
Then they’re banished forever. I’m a “clean slate every day” type person. Digital mise en place, clean as you go. Marie Kondo that shit.

You know I had that same (valid) attitude until in business everything got changed to be a webapp.
My issue I’m finding, is that some of my tabs are magically grouping, an I have no idea why its even happening. I just notice a line under them
You can group tabs by dragging them on top of each other. Maybe you’re doing that accidentally?

Disable tab grouping in settings if you don’t use it and it gets in the way.
Yeah. I plan to. Might be better already anyway
Actually… Looks like its probably because of Container tabs + facebook container… that makes sense
Tab grouping has been one of the most wanted features for years. There’s just no pleasing everyone…
People like you are the reason I was afraid to go to school as a child.
I don’t get the joke. Why would you be afraid?
It’s a quote from Mystique (the mutant from X-Men) which she says to mutant-hating politician.
The joke here is that liking the design changes makes you an awful person. And it is just that, a joke.
