Firefox 89 - UI takes up more room

The chrome on Firefox 89 has changed - looks OK but all the tabs at the top seem deeper and give less room for content. Not good in my book.

You can go back to the old look using:

about:config and make browser.proton.enabled false

There is more to say around Firefox Tabs - I like to have rows of tabs open and use:

But it’s a real pain and I wish one of the major browsers would allow for multiple rows of tabs, or allow add-ons to create them.
