Looks like a child's toy with all the very large rounded corners.

I like to save vertical space for content, this looks like it's wasting it with useless padding and borders.

Visually, okay for me.

UX wise, not really a revolution.

Please learn from Zen Browser.

Why everyone and their grandmother are rounding corners of web viewport? Where is the scrollbar? It will be really hard to distinguish what is a website, and what's the actual browser UI. Why is there padding between window edge and browser toolbar?

It's very import that Firefox look like a cheap knock-off of whatever is popular. This ensures that there's no reason for new users to switch to it, whilst also alienating current users, bringing the Mozilla Foundation closer to their goal, which seems to be having zero happy users and zero happy employees, for some reason.

Are they really going to double down on the tabs looking like buttons.

Anyway not looking forward to my userChrome CSS for tabs on bottom ending up broken again in the redesign
