I wonder what reason fanboys of moz will come up with to justify this idiotic design.

so many people complain and create their own solutions (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1418752)

but the fanboys tell me the users are just stupid and yet fail to explain how "close application" and "get mails" should be in one row. is this good for a known workflow?

please fanboys enlighten me how this is not yet another of many many terrible decisions by the digital terrorists behind moz? (killing weave, ugly logos, locking down on customization, having amazon default in adressbar search and so on...)

is there one sane argument to do it? and do we have to fear firefox to lose more users soonish with the same designfail for the browser?

Are you talking about the unified titlebar? That's a design trend that's being used in every operating system including Windows, Mac OS and most Linux desktop environments.

Sorry for my ignorance but can't you change logos and position of bars with css files or extensions? I agree I would prefer if it used gtk or qt themes but I don't see this as that big of a problem

I want to hear somebody come up with a justification for moving the "Save" button in the download dialog to the top right, instead of the bottom, where everybody expects is after thousands of years of top->bottom left->right reading. Now the flow is top->bottom, left->right, where is the save button? Oh yeah, somebody moved it way up there.

or why do i need two buttons to compose a new email? the blue "New Message" or the grey "+write"....i assume there is absolutely no effin difference in the buttons but some senior bs talker at moz got his way.

they will achive 0% marketshare within 5 years.

You do know that the way you wrote this is not going to get any constructive discussion, right?

Yes

I tried other ways prior ...like i kindly ask for weave substitute or accept 22yrs for a bug to be fixed...and did that change anything? No
