Make it easier to hide the share button in the address bar in Firefox on Android. Together with reader mode and the translate button (if available) there is almost no space left for the address itself. Moving all three buttons to the menu (or at least the share button) would help a lot.

Agreed, those buttons are of the past. I often click them accidentally.

A clean interface is a better interface.

URL + tabs button + kebab menu would be enough for me.

If you end up visiting a phishing website, graphically identical to the legit counterpart, you don't realize it because the address bar is completely covered by the share and the translate button.

This is absolutely crazy. I hope they revert these changes back.

i was going to argue that the Share button should not be in the address bar — the space for webpage-specific info and actions — because it works on every website. but then i realized that Share doesn't work on offline documents opened in Firefox, since Firefox attempts to send its converted filepath instead of the actual file.

if they fix that, the share button will work in every context, so it may be removed from the address bar since it's used too rarely to justify taking up such a prominent space.

please make the Share button send the actual file when used on an offline document, so it will be an action that works in every context, so you can remove it from the address bar.

Please remove the share button for the address bar. completely redundant when I can copy/paste the address. add it to the menu if you must add it, I don't need it in my face constantly.
