Like the theme, but there is way toooooooo much glass. Main reason why I've always hated Glass...there's no originality anymore.

I know what you mean, but that's the direction everything seems to be taking these days. We are just trying to stay true to the mockup, so we've gotta do what we've gotta do :D.

After this theme will probably come something much more original from us.

It's chill. I wasn't really taking about your theme, Except there is a lot of glass.. Like preferences really doesnt need to have Glass and such.

No problem, I still agree though that it seems that everything is taking that course lately.

I figured putting glass in Options was a good idea because some people didn't seem to like that header background no matter what we did with it :p.

I have a suggestion, when you guys are done, release it, then release the tabs on top version later, just in case the guy doing the tabs on top takes a while, we don't all have to suffer in the meantime :p

We'll try to get in touch with him, and if we can't in a timely manner we will release this version as is. Don't worry :D.

Cool. I'm not interested in the tabs-on-top version but I quite like this theme glass-less so I'll be looking out for the new release.

Same here i prefer the tabs on the bottom as i can never get used to them on top. Looking forward to the release.

No offense to the author(s), but that "new" theme they came up with looks like a bad Chrome clone. Is that the best they can do?

I think its actually an enhanced version of the Google Chrome browser, bringing the best of the interface into one.

I agree yes, it does look like they've taken a lot of Google Chrome and put it into firefox, but most of the browsers these days seem to be going for this sort of design, so it's not really surprising.

Demonstration of the active, hover and pressed apng's in the options window.

They will also be in the add-ons and site information windows.

Watch in HQ and fullscreen to get the best impression.

Again, please let us know what you think!

We have created two versions of the new RSS icon, so please tell us: Which one do you like better?

The greyish version which matches the other buttons of the theme or the redish one which makes it a bit more noticable?

I like the one that makes it more noticeable.

Looking nice, but I hope all this extra flash isn't going to add too much damage to Firefox's already notoriously bad memory management (memory leaks, colossal memory usage, etc).

    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all by Taras Buria Over the last few months, Microsoft has been very busy fixing Windows 11 with features that users have been asking the company for a long time. An upgraded Start menu, the ability to change the taskbar position, new Windows Update features, and plenty more. However, not all changes are visible on the surface. Some exciting upgrades happened under the hood, and one of those upgrades is now available to all Windows 11 users. The so-called "Low Latency Profile" is a special performance mode that aims to make Windows 11 snappier and more responsive. It boosts the processor clock speed to its maximum for a brief moment when rendering user interface elements or launching apps. As such, apps launch faster, and things like the Start menu or quick settings appear on the screen faster, although some are sceptical about it. Microsoft is not sharing many details about the new profile. The official release notes do not even mention it, with Microsoft only saying that the update "accelerates app launch and core shell experiences such as Start menu, Search, and Action Center." Also, you may need to enable it manually, as new features are rolling out gradually. Here is how to do it: Download ViVeTool from GitHub and unpack wherever convenient. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id:58989092 and press Enter. Restart your computer. After restarting your computer, launch Task Manager or any other hardware-monitoring software and check the processor clocks when opening the Start menu, Action Center, and more. Your processor should spike to its highest possible speed and then return to lower clocks. In addition to Low Latency Mode, the June 2026 Patch Tuesday update delivers additional features, such as multi-camera mode for apps (several apps can use a single camera stream), shared Bluetooth audio, improved Task Manager, and more.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I agree, especially with newer versions of MS Office supporting ODF documents, there isn't even a compatibility argument to be made. It should default to ODF on a clean install, with admin configurable options to make MS Office the default if that is desired.
    • Microsoft explains how it made Teams so much faster in 2026

      Are they on crack at M$? Surely living on an alternative reality? A good dump of mine would run faster down the toilet if I did not flush it. But still looks better than this pile of slop. By the way, did they also comment on what's the next "functionality added"? Maybe you can improve it if you add even more stuff to this vomitware.
