To me, Firefox 57 is just an appetizer. The main course is Firefox 59 (When Quantum Render is due)

Originally posted by leipero View PostActually, Firefox will support propet gtk headerbar (unlike Chromium/Chrome), few months ago experimental patch was pushed, and you could compile it, it wasn't that impressive and had quite a bit of bugs, but those bugs are known and will be fixed (if they arrent already), so yeah, Firefox will follow/respect gtk theme buttons as far as I know. So no, it will not look exactly the same, and no they do not promote anything, they just need to implement that and move with time (as they do).
Yes, unlike Chrome this actually follows the GTK theme. But aside from the min/max/close buttons, it does look the same as with SSD. Whereas Gnome applications with headerbars look quite different. The keyword being "rich" headerbar (aka, stuff a bunch of buttons up there, instead of having them in a classic toolbar), something Firefox definitely will not have. It's a case of Firefox, even in SSD mode, not looking like a classic application anyway (it can though, if you enable the menu bar).Last edited by Gusar; 29 September 2017, 12:31 AM.

Gusar Oh i see, well, headerbar is still work in progress, buttons and stuff isn't really needed, but I see your point, that is relatively easy to move (I think?) after main problems are solved.
andyprough I should check Nightly built, will do asap , but trust me, those benchmarks do represent performance (not neccessarily browsing experience tho), often, on my hardware while doing some benchmarks, Firefox would wait for so long to load next that 10s(?) warning would come up saying "The web page is slowing down your browser", now how accurate that is and how benchmarks are made, I have no clue.
