Safari - compact tabs - gone?

[33355]

They made the tabs look awful and removed the option to change how tabs look. Do they hate the people that use their products?

Actually contemplating switching over to Firefox until they fit it, but I worry about battery life

Firefox’ non-standard interface elements are just as bad though. Can’t stand them.

Made me "uncomfortable", too. Here's an old example of two windows where, in each case, the first tab is active.

Tahoe is at least slightly better about this due to tabs looking vaguely three-dimensional...

Neither of those is what Compact tabs looked like. The tabs AND the address bar were on the same line. the address bar existed within the active tab.
