Warning for people who use or install Firefox UI Fix on other people's computers: Mozilla occasionally breaks everything with new Firefox releases, and you can end up with a non-functional tabs bar until you reinstall the newest version of Firefox UI Fix. Not so much a problem if you're a techie, but a big problem for the non-techies you install it for. |

Firefox used to have a pretty Chrome-like tabs bar with curved trapezoid corners and a lighter highlight for the selected tab.Then one day they decided that's bad, made it all flat rectangles and inverted the color scheme. Someone on the UX team had to justify their existence I guess. So my muscle memory was telling me that the tab that is selected is not selected and I couldn't get anything done.
Okay not a problem, set up some flags that revert the old scheme, done. A few months later, Mozilla breaks that functionality because fuck you. Okay still not a problem, find and install a custom theme that makes the task bar look normal again.
Half a year later they release a new patch that breaks the custom theme by sliding the tabs bar roughly 50% up so it's being clipped by the fucking window. I no longer have any clue what file changes I made to mod in that custom theme so I'm stuck with a broken install of Firefox unless I nuke my profiles. Yaaaay.
sigh
In my probably decade+ of using it, Chrome has never been this annoying.
