  As noted, there are quite a few of these, I use this project:

  https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx.

  It's actively maintained and lets me put the tab bar directly above the content but you can set it up to fully return you to the days of Firefox 4 if you want...

• How do i fix this?

• Firefox Keeps Getting Faster

  Just in case you do not know or you are interested, the Firefox's UI is mere CSS, one can customize it through "chrome/userChrome.css" in the profile folder of the user. I put my tabs under the bookmarks for example, just above the page content, with the template from the CustomCSSforFx[1] project, and modified some colors and icons.

  Firefox have also the "Browser Toolbox"[2] -and is homologous to the web development tools- that you can use for to explore the CSS of the UI, select elements, the CSS code, and modify them for to see how would work the modifications before to put them within the userChrome.css

  The tabs are under the id=TabsToolbar, so an #TabsToolbar{ display: none !important; } or similar should work, in addition to correct the space that it leaves modifying other params css.

• Why Bother with uBlock Being Blocked in Chrome? Time to Switch to Firefox
  9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Nov 2023

  Years ago, a strange trend began in which browsers removed by default all the classic menu bars, bookmarks, etc., sacrificing usability for aesthetics.

  But fortunately with Firefox it is possible to restore that usability through its options, and custom stylesheets allows us to change the interface under our needs. In my case I use as base [0]customcssforfx for to put the tabs under the url bar (by default is shown over the url bar), and from there I add a couple of lines with custom padding, sizes and icons. [0] https://github.com/aris-t2/customcssforfx

  The matter is, when I open the browser I see the following rows:

  1. Menu bar (file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help).

  2. history buttons |[ URL BAR ]| reload | home | addons (... | Decentral eyes | CookieAutoDelete | uMatrix | uBlockOrigin | Multi-Acount containers ) | Addons icon | Menu bar icon |.

  3. Toolbar bookmarks row | Button for unfolding the bookmarks that don't fit in such row.

  4. Pinned tabs (they are only icons) | < | Tab_1, Tab_2, Tab_3, ... | > | + | unfold vertical list of the opened tabs |.

  5. The page for the selected Tab.

  This allows us to use two bookmarks visual groups, the ones that are unfolded through Menubar's bookmarks, and the ones from Toolbar's folder -what in reality is a subfolder from menubar's bookmarks- that it's shown as 3rd row in the interface. Also the easy access to CookieAutoDelete, uMatrix, uBlockOrigin current page options are essential.

  In the Toolbar bookmarks, for being able to visually have more folders as "quick access" row line, I use acronyms as folder names (just for the first ones until fill that space). This between separators, and also mere url icons bookmarks (by removing the bookmark title name its just showed the page icon).

  When one push one those folders are unfold all the related sub-folders and sub-bookmarks.

  Also, equally important, the folders and bookmarks that don't fit in such row are easily accessible by pushing an icon at the right corner, what unfolds a vertical list with the rest the bookmarks. This is important because in such toolbar one usually have several hundreds of independent bookmarks and folders by topics, with infinite sub-folders and their respective bookmarks, etc.

  This let us in Firefox with:

  Pinned tabs (that I usually have linked to multi containers), the current session opened tabs, the usability of to have all those topics by clicking the folder or icon, a second different visual group of tabs through Menubar's bookmarks. If one want to add to those folders/topics the page is being read, it's just needed to drag and drop the url there. Also all those folders have the option "open it all in tabs".

  I can not think in browsing comfortable without such interface and tools as a starting.

• userchrome CSS to move tabs below navigation bar leaves vertical space above navigation bar? Firefox 113.0.1, Windows 10.
  1 project | /r/firefox | 19 May 2023

  I'm trying to use the userchrome CSS here to put the tabs below the navigation bar, and it does indeed move the tabs below the navigation bar but then leaves the vertical space for the tabs on top of the navigation bar as inactive dead space. What do I need to do to fix this? I also tried the alt version of the CSS code and got the same thing.
