I hated the most recent redesign with the jumbo user chrome.
So much so that I jumped ship. Went to Opera for a bit, no on Vivaldi.
Vivaldi: Has a pleasant looking UI, is easy to customize the color scheme, has a TON of options for various workflows, is fast.
While FF likes to show strong benchmarks for Gecko, Blink is noticeably smoother in practice.
Mozilla really needs to inject new life into Firefox. Fix the UI; fix the perf problems. The Servo team was making great progress in the perf department. So sad that Mozilla dropped that program.
