    I just remembered, I also did this. I don't remember why I did it though.

    I right clicked where the BLUE dot is, and then chose the option in the RED rectangle.

    It was to get rid of... something I didn't like.

    The default setting was "Only show on new tab".

    I'll need to checkout the new Firefox. For years, I was an ardent user of Firefox, but haven't used it other than another browser to test from in the past 10 years. I use Chrome for just about everything.

    I tried Chrome once. It was OK. But I decided to stick with Firefox and uninstalled Chrome.
    Chrome left a ton of Google stuff in the registry. And this was back in the days when they had "good" registry cleaners.

    Then the Google search engine started to censor results, and I just decided that anything Google, just wasn't worth it.
    But it's personal preference, ofc.

    The only thing as of right now that I don't have as I like it is the animation that is displayed when a webpage finishes loading. I dont see the tab throbber's but I see animation, to me it is a distraction. I had that disabled in Firefox 87 (I skipped 88) but is back in 89.
    I found the code thats needed to eliminate the "burst" at the end when a tab loads.

    .tab-loading-burst {
    display: none !important;}

    }

    I am happy now.

    I think I remember doing that, Ghot. It was to get rid of the Bookmarks menu. I dont use it and never have. I think without doing this, a blank space remained. I am not sure but is something like this.
