Please, please allow us to place the tabs at the bottom

The famous tabs on bottom. I've been using it from the beginnings with the help of css, but once again it's broken. I can see that creating a modern design with this layout is challenging, but they are not trying at all. I have several minor issues with the browser, but this one tops that list by a mile.

i am running FF 107.0, added userchrome script to put the tabs on the bottom.

i also disabled ff updates AND disabled update notifications that would otherwise nag me every time

ff ran, all because of the possibility of breaking the script of putting the tabs on bottom. 

 

hoping that TabMixPlus addon would be offered again for the latest FF desktop browser, such addon included the option of tab location.

feature request nag: provide the option to locate the tabs at the bottom of the screen

this feature has already been requested over a year ago. nevertheless, i am seconding the motion AGAIN.

i have disabled ff updates and update notifications while running ff 107.0 with a userchrome script that puts the tabs on the bottom of the screen.......so why am i still nagging?

eventually ff 107.0 will no longer support various addons and updating the browser will break the aforementioned script.

there used to be an addon called "tabmixplus" that allowed one to tweak/customize all things tab wise in ff, however, it is not compatible with the latest FF software engine. would like to have it back.

Agreed mine just broke again last night and it's so annoying. The way I had it yesterday was

Menu Bar
Search/URL Bar (With add on buttons)
Bookmarks Bar
Tabs

All in the header and now the tabs are again under the menu bar rather then book marks bar. Get sick and tired of having to waste my time every few months trying to find a new CSS code to move the tabs back down where I want them. Hate having to hunt between lines for the tab I want!

We use to have the option to move tabs on bottom and that needs to seriously be brought back again!

Previously working custom CSS for tabs on bottom again broken for v113. This is the Nth time same issue happens. I think this is deliberate breakage to harass users. Cannot happen accidentally that CSS implementing one specific feature gets broken every few months! Total waste of time having to fix this again all the time!

This might help some of you perhaps just looking to place the tabs below again but one of the members in the support forum helped me figure out the fix and it works fine. The fix is the last post in the thread by me and has all the CSS code I used to again put the tabs below

Making moves

I truly can't understand why this is NOT an option, after all the gnashing of teeth over many years. I'm so fed up with Firefox that I'm actually beginning to consider Edge (now THAT's bad). I put off upgrading FF as long as I can, and then... some primadonna developer decides to break it for everybody, again. Making this an option would be SO ridiculously easy that it's hard to imagine this continual breakage isn't intentional.

I'm also fed up with Firefox, and I have been wondering for some time whether Mozilla intentionally makes changes so that custom CSS no longer work. I haven't switched to other browsers because I do not want them.
