I've been employing a userChrome file to move the finder bar from the bottom of a window to the top where it's easier to see and use. In Firefox 110, the code I use is broken.

Could we have a checkbox in Settings to make that change natively? As long as I'm writing, could there be another checkbox to move the tabs below the favorites bar if the user wishes?

One reason I use Firefox for a great deal of work is having choices (another example: the choice to close tabs to the right or left, whereas in other browsers the choice is close only tabs to the right). I've seen enough posts around the internet to convince me that many people would welcome having tabs on the bottom or a finder bar on top. Please give this serious consideration.

It has been YEARS that we have been asking for this in different ways. Every time there's an update I have to scour the web for css scripts that work, and I'm not a programmer, so it can be hours of trying to remember how to do that, and hours of searching and testing. For EACH of my computers.  It's so annoying, and makes me want to roll back to an earlier version so my css file will still work. Is there not a way to prioritize this? If the tabs can be moved to the side, can't they just also be moveable to the bottom?

I agree with everything member Anaya stated above. It's nuts that we have to do this! I dread every update. I remember many year back that there was an option in the menu system to put the tabs on the bottom. Please bring it back ASAP.

As for the tabs on the side, I don't want them. It won't work for me as I typically have two applications on my screen running side-by-side. Therefore, Forefox gets half my screen space, and I don't want to give up space to vertical tabs within Firefox.
