I use it all the time and have for years. Just seems like a weird feature to lock behind about.config and say it’s not supported while they still support things like Pocket.
It is essentially just extra maintenance of a feature in Firefox that (statistically) not many people use
As such, it’s marked as “unsupported” to make clear that if any issues arise, Mozilla won’t help you with those issues.
Not many people use it because it is hidden away and not default.
Firefox in compact mode is about as compact as Chromium, so no issue here.
I think I have it enabled too and just forgot about it. It really should be a checkbox next to themes or something.
it used to be visible as an option in ‘customize toolbar’. it was deprecated and deemed ‘unsupported’ way back around v89, but at least they kept it available as a ‘hidden’ setting.
i use it on every pc i have firefox installed on (which is, well, all of them that aren’t ‘terminal only’).
The people who make it their business to go through Firefox looking for features to remove almost got it, but the public outcry against its complete removal seems to have deterred them for now.
They should def. get rid of the start up animation . wasting my 3 microsecond is not cool
What startup animation? Mine just opens…
