Please add an option to have the "close tab" button on the left side of a tab.
Lots of Apple users would love that!

I know there’s a workaround with lots of coding involved. But that don’t work for most (non techie) Mac users.
With an easy tick menu in preferences, firefox would much better integrate in Mac look and feel.

I think this should be based on the behavior of the underlying OS, not necessarily a user configurable option.

I agree, having window controls consistent with the underlying OS just makes sense.

Dear MF team,

I've just switched to Firefox from Safari due to their awful UX update, which has made a huge mess for anyone using more than 10 tabs at a time. So far I'm very happy (and very pleased that bookmarks & history importing was so easy!), but having the close button on the right side of the tab is extremely confusing when everywhere else on MacOS it's always on the left.

Would be grateful if you developed an optional setting for users to switch it to the left side!!

Thank you so much and keep up the good work 🙂 (and whatever you do, please don't ever make rounded tabs like Apple did lmfao)
