I have been using firefox for a long time, but recently the UI on firefox changed from their simple square look to a childish bubbly one. I dont know how or even if its possibe to revert it back. Looking for suggestions and/or opinions on this change. https://i.imgur.com/Z160vhP.png

I would give it two weeks. You stare at this interface a lot throughout the day. When it changes, your brain's immediate reaction is "That's different and different is bad", even though you may not actually dislike it in the long-term. It's certainly been growing on me.

You can change individual aspects with a userChrome.css file. For example, I might use that to reduce the tab height, as I rarely click tabs. But yeah, I wouldn't recommend trying to change everything with that. It's going to break sooner or later, as Mozilla obviously can't promise to not change the structure of their UI.
