Firefox plans to remove large URL bar

Does anyone have a screenshot or video of that? It gets a lot of hate here but I've either never seen it or never noticed it...

Thank you, it turns out I just didn't even notice it.

The bar enlarging drives me absolutely mad. I hate it. It's crazy to me how you couldn't have noticed it.

I always find little quirks like this funny. Human minds ey.

Haha but it barely just gets a border! Maybe because I use a dark theme? When you say "enlarging", do you mean the drop down showing? Or the extra border?

Yeah I don't get it. It's the same as half the text fields on the web that get a border when focused.

e.g. https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/forms/form-control/
