And for those who think they'd dislike it: v3 now added an option to move it to the top again.

For me it was the past that annoyed me. Glad they added an option to put it back on to.

Honestly, I dislike it. I already have visual clutter in the top of my phone with the Android status bar; I don't need more clutter in the bottom.

I think it's just an ergonomics thing. With my fingers being constantly around the bottom third of the screen while browsing, it always felt awkward to reach all the way to the top just to tap the url bar, then go back down to the keyboard again.

Jelly browser on LineageOS does the same thing, and the setting to toggle top or bottom is described as "reach mode" for one-handed usage.

At first the bottom address bar sold FFPreview to me as well. However, the popup soft keyboard makes it bounce around(up&down), which in some instances is really annoying. I'm happy to have learned the address bar can be moved to the top.

I didn't realise how much I'd missed it from other browsers until I tried it. It's a breath of fresh air.
