I was an old school die-hard Firefox user back in the day, have since switched to chrome... I want Mozilla to succeed and fight the browser monoculture.

I'm just not really sure what the "killer feature" to bring users back is? Chrome has kept their core UI relatively stable since forever. Meanwhile we are onto another big Firefox redesign where we make the tabs look different? Why follow UI trends (big spacing) that your core userbase dislikes? I could understand it if Firefox was a different kind of product, with a different set of users.

I don't really know what Mozilla should be doing here, but I don't think these annoying UI tweaks are it.

One killer feature which made me switch from FF to Vivaldi (but AFAIK available in Chrome as well) is the fast changing of profiles.
