IMHO it's definetly a hard break with the past design.
But it looks more mature and not as 'shy'.

Nightly has this so I assume it will come to Firefox sooner or later.

If the part you dislike is having to manually download updates, then this might be a solution: https://f-droid.org/packages/de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater

ooh awesome i'll look. yeah i didn't mind doing the apks for beta or focus but nightly is updated (well duh :P) every night so i just didn't want to keep remembering.

It's good but slow. Though I may just be unreasonable.

FFUpdater can keep it updated for you. Sort of a browser-specific app store.

i just tried and it works great; i had accrescent for ironfox but i like this because i can also get rid of the play store for vivaldi.
