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

Sorry to those who made this but I absolutely hate it. The previous UI wasn't the best but at least it was much more compact than this. Literally ads no meaningful feature while increasing taps needed for features and waste screen space.

Firefox mobile UX sucks.

Try select multiple bookmarks and then move them. Cant.

Save a bookmark and get a lingering notification that doesnt swipe away.

Download a file? Same.

This menu changes nothing except for some reason taking away the new tab menu option.

I dont mind a larger menu but what was chosen as huge and small makes little sense.

Agree 100%.

I still can't figure out how to add a shortcut to the new tab page lmao

Wish they just get the ui back to how it was like in the kitkat days

Chrome keeps my most used sites as suggestions. Firefox has massive tiles for most recent bookmarks. It is painfully inadequate at the simple things, it is only decent as a somewhat more private alternative to the big tech cancers.
