NOW what. What kind of redesign are they talking about and how many
hours will I wind up having to invest in order to come up with kludges
and workarounds so that I can continue to use Firefox? >80(>

As long as all that widget garbage and the icons for supposedly
important webpages can be ejected with a blank homepage...

F**king round corners on everything!!!!   It's not Android Google messages, no bubbles please!

And I've had tinted the border in the URL since v70 with CSS.  Hell it's about time they 
did some accents.

More work that is diverted from fixing things.

You never did provide an answer to my question back on 20 June about
ability to change themes from the small selection built into Ffox 152.
Does your highly-coloured screen remain after switching to a plain
light or dark theme?

Your experience at the time described Alpenglow, which had been added
as a stock theme -- it can be disabled but not removed.
