I just want my good old Firefox back! The Quantum layout sucks and now the tabs at the top are displayed like in Chrome, meaning when I have too many up, I can hardly see what each tab is without clicking on it and I can't see if the tabs with my emails open have any new messages since it cuts off before the "(1)" part it shows when I get a message!

I usually have 200+ tabs open for various reasons so this is really bad! Icecat isn't any better either...

8 cores and 4GB RAM (Mozilla takes up half of that:P). Emails alone are the 20 of them! I really can't stand Quantum...

Tab scrolling? The arrow buttons you mean? Quantum requires you to press arrow buttons at the top to scroll through tabs, while regular Firefox simply requires you to hover your mouse to the side of the open tabs bar and it auto-scrolls, which is how I like it! Also, I tend to use the mouse wheel to scroll through the many tabs, but now that speed got halved!:/

200 tabs?! Damn, I and I thought 20 was a lot!
Anyways I suggested Icecat because it's the closest thing to the old Firefox versions I could think of (besides Firefox ESR, of course) but yeah. I'm not too fond of this update either, looks like another one of those "it looks okay on mobile so it'll also work fine on desktops" type of things...

Yeah, I HATE how people try to make everything mobile-like or mobile-friendly and all that when normal computers are the most important thing! I want the classic Firefox in all it's buggy glory, I don't care about "performance" and all that crap when they ruined it! Now I need to have 3 Firefox windows open to share the tabs in order to make it possible to work efficiently, but that's eating up more than 3GB of RAM!

"we want to make Firefox a faster and a less using memory browser"
"used Firefox on my portable PC (which is reaaaaally faster than my main comp. (4 cores, 2 proc and 8gb of RAM, a good ASUS comp)), and indeed is faster and better than Chrome."
"used it on my main comp (the other one - 2 cores and 4gb of ram), one minute for firefox loading, freezes and one more for browsing one page duhhhhhh"

No kidding, it takes me 10 seconds to even load a page on youtube, let alone the video itself! With regular Firefox, everything loaded instantly, no hanging and it still was WAY faster than Chrome AND less resource consuming (especially how Chrome has the habit of occupying ALL cores at the same time). Why would they even do that?
