      Tbh, firefox’s hamburger menu is still pretty dumb. To my knowledge it has no shortcut, it is not configurable and can’t be removed from the toolbar. Right at the top it has with bold text sync, whether you use it or not. It has this stupid animation when it shifts to submenus. Another button that can’t be removed is the extensions button.

      But well … chromium doesn’t even allow to customize the toolbar in the first place.

        How so? It looks pretty standard to me. Agreed that it’d be nice to have a keyboard shortcut for it, but calling it among the worst UI seems excessive.

        And being able to customise menus like that is exceptionally rare in software.

          True. It probably feels that way because it moved into the toolbar, which was always customizable. If I remember correctly, they always argued that you can use the old menus if you want to use keyboard. But it feels a bit unfinished, the burger menu can’t be removed from the toolbar, has no shortcut and does not have all options the old menus have (offline mode, open file, new container tabs, find again).

          And I’m also annoyed by sync since it appeared in that menu. Running your own server for that was always tricky or not possible and it’s not possible to build something similar with addons since they can’t even access bookmark tags.

        I think, the idea is that you don’t need a keyboard shortcut for the hamburger menu, because the regular menubar contains everything and is fully keyboard accessible by pressing Alt.

        But yeah, that it can’t be removed is there to protect regular users from themselves. If you’re a power user wanting to remove it, then that (and much more) can be done with userChrome.css. See, for example: https://www.userchrome.org

      “Proton” FF UI sucks badly. It convinced me to move elsewhere.

        Nobody believes your disingenuous remarks. You literally have a whine about Mozilla in your profile. It’s clear you have some kind of personal vendetta/obsession with them.

          I don’t need you to believe me. Actually, I couldn’t care less. Have a nice day.
