IMHO it’s definetly a hard break with the past design.
But it looks more mature and not as ‘shy’.

    It moved the back/forward arrows to the top of the screen where I can barely reach. Why ?

    I hate it. It used to be two taps to open a new tab.

    Now it’s four taps:

    • Open the menu

    • Close the menu

    • Open tabs

    • [+]

    My muscle memory ain’t going nowhere.

      In defense of Mozilla on this one, the new tab button has been in tabs for years now, and it kinda makes sense to be there.

      If they’re trying to streamline menus, getting rid of a redundant button is a good start.

      I miss the toolbar that was experimented with for a while in Nightly that had both the new tab button and the forward button visible at all times. But apparently other people hated it.

            Phone acting as tablet. Settings “smallest width” to 600dp or more triggers tablet mode on Android, which changes certain UI elements to, in my opinion, make more sense on average near 7" smartphones. At least for me as I am a landscape-first user.

            So, since I already screwed up my homescreen layout by toggling this now, I’ll give you screenshots to compare between 423 (smallest in regular settings) and 705dp (what I use). 423 on left, 705 on right.

            Took me longer than I anticipated, but anyway:

            Sorry for the JPEG, original was 18MB.

            Notice the difference in keyboard layout, and 3 button navigation with app icons and app drawer.

            You should be able to click the image to open it, at least on LemmyUI.

              I appreciate the effort! (Indeed looks like that wasn’t quick to put together.) And yes, that looks like you get a bunch more controls on your wider phone.

    I like it. :-) It always amazes me, that so many people who like free and open software, are so negative about changes. If you really want things your way, then support the software, ad your skills, pay for it, so that the best people can work on it. A little more gratitude for peoples free work, to provide you with great and free software, would be in order.

    Sorry to those who made this but I absolutely hate it. The previous UI wasn’t the best but at least it was much more compact than this. Literally ads no meaningful feature while increasing taps needed for features and waste screen space.

    I just changed it back right when I figured out how.

    This is my day 2 of trying Firefox on Android (coming from Opera), so it’s not like I was already used to it.

    About Firefox Nightly -> Tap the FF logo a few times -> Secret settings -> Enable menu redesign off

      Thank you. I don’t hate the big buttons, but they put the most important ones on the top out of reach frommy thumb. Dumbest decision ever.

        Release doesn’t even have tab bar yet.

        Beta does, but only has the new menu and homepage doesn’t count as tab like on desktop and doesn’t support DoH, like on desktop.

        Nightly is most feature-complete.

        But I’ll have to figure out how to check existing and report new bugs. Search may not work when I hit enter, opening links with Firefox just opens the homepage, only when I click back does it actually open the link, screenshots sometimes don’t work, but only after I go to tab menu and then back, and the bottom-most thing in homepage is cut-off, so I use the stories as padding (might be related to custom high system-wide DPI).

    They half assedly implemented it without porting over all features, which is annoying but definitely the Mozilla way.

    Avid nightly user; I’m just starting to get used to it, and I think I it’s better for most users, but I need to regular use the translate feature which doesn’t automatically translate the languages that I need. So that’s a few extra taps for me, and honestly it adds up.

    It was mentioned her that their should be some kind of customization, and I would be happy to lose a little bit more of the background to have the translate button on the main menu

      Customization would definetly help with such use cases, e.g. letting users replace lesser used buttons like Share or Home with Translation or Addons Menu.

    I like it when buttons can be reached entirely by my thumb without overstretching it. Feel like anything that isn’t that is a design failure.

    Assuming that’s the menu that is accessed from the tab bar, my first thought is that it doesn’t have everything the current one has. Where are “find in page” and “desktop site”?

        I think I like the current one better from a usability perspective because it opens where I can access the whole thing with my thumb without having to stretch. Looks like that might not be the case here but we’ll see I suppose

        I don’t hate it, but I would REALLY like to be able to move those buttons around. Refresh, share, and forward are hands-down my most used buttons. Having to chase them up feels tedious.

        Similarly sign in (or, I’m guessing account once you do sign in) does not need that much real estate.

        Finally I’d love to swap Passwords with a shortcut to my password manager of choice (in my case, Bitwarden)

        I appreciate the more modern take, but I think it could use some refinement or customization options, similar to dragging things around your toolbar in FF desktop.

    I like it. It’s better en easier to use than the old one.

    Note that I’m using it for multiple months at this point.

    I just wish they’d make it customizable to replace the home button with extension menu, new tab or remove it completely. That home button has been useless for me.

      Home button? Where? I don’t see one.

      Do you mean the navigation bar at the bottom? That can be changed in OS settings.

    The only button i use on a regular basis is the reload page. It moved and i need to re-learn the muscle memory but that’s fine. Also i will most likely be using firefox on samsung’s android XR headset and this panel will work a lot better for that.

    I have my navigation bar on the bottom, the new menu has the important navigation button on top regardless of this setting. So it means I have to press menu and the move my finger all the way up the screen anytime I want to go backward, forward, share, refresh, …
