Hi Firefox Team, what you would say to make an UI adjustments regarding the https://arc.net/ which becomes very popular :) it could be a great opportunity to get some Windows and Linux users back, since they released Mac only so far. Also it's based on Chromium and it seems it is not an open-source yet. cc @mozilla @firefox @FirefoxNightly

I’m with you. I understand some people find the current Firefox UI enough for their necessities. However, that doesn’t mean everyone thinks the same. Mozilla should think about a redesign of Firefox.

I used Arc for two months, at the beginning was really annoying, but later I got the point, and it has some good features (split view, hover sidebar…)

What I couldn’t stand for, was the idea of using Chromium. I felt terrible. Now, I switched to Firefox again, but this time using a Japanese fork called Floorp. The developer behind it did I pretty good job, I figured out, and I have something very close to Arc’s UI, of course, with some limitations.
