Hello! The new sidebar feature in Firefox is great, but I have some ideas to improve it:
- Make it thinner/compact or resizable. In my opinion it takes a lot of space for just a few icons. I believe resizing it to half its current size wouldn't cause any issues. On the other hand, if some users want a thicker sidebar, then that's fine, so maybe add an option to select wide/medium/thin and compact/normal/comfortable.
- Make it transparent or adapt its color to the current webpage (see attachment).
- If the user chooses to hide it or show it, stop randomly hiding/showing it in the next session and instead remember if it was closed or open and stick to that preference, even in private windows.
- Add more AI assistants (Copilot, LLaMA, Duck.ai, DeepSeek, DeepAI and more) and add an option to share the contents of the current webpage with it (example: "please summarize the long Wikipedia page I'm currently viewing" or "hey look, which link should I click?")
- Add more general buttons (examples: search in this page, extensions, passwords, clear recent browsing data, downloads, page source...) and allow moving buttons (example: make it possible to have the AI assistant below the bookmarks). Currently, to move the buttons you have to uncheck a button in the sidebar settings, and then check it again to make it appear at the bottom. Which is not very intuitive and also not possible for the extensions (you can't uncheck an extension button).
