Making it harder to Close All Tabs

The most recent Firefox update has completely changed the layout of the Tabs screen. Whereas previously, if I wanted to close all tabs, I would tap the "tab count" box, which would open the Tabs screen - that still works as it should.

But now the "three dot" menu - where the Close All Tabs (and all other tab manipulation functions) resides - as well as the New tab button, has been moved to the bottom of the screen. This requires the user to move from the very top of the screen to the very bottom, a significant waste of motion.

Who thought this was a good idea? I don't think I've EVER seen such a menu, in any app, anywhere but at the top of the screen, where it's easily right in the same area as most other screen functions.

Please consider moving this menu back to the top, or even make it's position adjustable by the user.

I'd be very interested in hearing the reason(s) for this change, as well as other users' thoughts on this.

Thanks.

it's really annoying .how this is any improvement and when people get used to something they change it .update doesn't mean you have to shuffle things without real improvement .
