Hello Firefox team,
I would like to share my feedback about the scrollbar behavior change introduced in Firefox 153.
After this update, some websites that use webkit scrollbar CSS rules behave differently in Firefox. Previously, these websites displayed overlay scrollbars, but now some of them show a separate scrollbar area with an additional line next to the scrollbar.
I understand that the goal of this change is to improve compatibility with websites designed for Chromium-based browsers. However, this also changes the visual experience for Firefox users.
Many users may prefer the previous overlay scrollbar behavior. The new behavior can make some websites look less clean and inconsistent compared to previous Firefox versions.
Could you consider adding a preference that allows users to disable this compatibility behavior and keep the previous scrollbar behavior?
I appreciate the work done to improve web compatibility, but giving users more control over this change would be a better solution.
Thank you for your work on Firefox.
Best regards
