Was tinkering with userchrome and sidebery this day and it got me thinking how others has their firefox customized. Let's bring the fun back to firefox. Share your screenshots. :)

My UI isn't really customized, as I prefer it as clean and bloat free as possible to maximize the space for actual content. Like that extra search & side bar and all the icons are something I'd judge you for. ;)
Ehh. Different strokes, I guess. Too much minimalism for me becomes extra step. Like if remove the search bar, I would have to type in duckduckgo.com everytime I need to search. Without the pinned icons, I would have to type gmail everytime, for example. Firefox is my secondary desktop and I treat those icons as kind of like a mini app. :)
Huh? No you do not? You just type your search term into the address bar and have DDG set as your default search engine. You also do not have to type the whole address to reach a website when it is part of your history. Usually the first one or two letters are already enough.
This feels like people still using desktop icons instead of just using the start menu search.
I remember design suggestion that made address bar floating until you come near it. So all the tab navigation was on the tab bar itself. Felt weird a bit, but damn the window was clear. There was nothing other than tabs and web content.
