Firefox users criticized the permanent 'List All Tabs' button introduced in version 131.0, leading Mozilla to make it removable.

The button, designed to manage hidden tabs and prevent add-ons from hiding them, received backlash for being unnecessary alongside Firefox View.

Mozilla responded with a fix in version 131.0.3, allowing users to remove the button through toolbar customization.

OOTL: I'm confused. What is this? I've been using Firefox for years and I have no idea what this button is/was or why people would be annoyed by it.

I'm trying to find it but I don't see it.

It is something that I always wanted because I'm paranoid of extensions hiding tabs in the background and I'm always trying to avoid it.

Edit: Apparently it is just the old tabs menu near the close button that now is also showing the hidden tabs?

The annoyance was that it wasn't easy to disable.
