https://superuser.com/questions/1424478/can-i-hide-native-tabs-at-the-top-of-firefox

is what I followed. Works perfectly. On the Mac the profiles directory
is in your user Library, Application Support, Firefox, Profiles. If you
have more than one folder there, check up a level for profiles.ini and
work out which one is Default.
