    Zen browser has iterated to something pretty good now: https://zen-browser.app/

    The Firefox redesign screenshot from the article has a few issues imo. The floating task bar doesn’t make sense to me, since that’s a core part of the program.

    Summary

    • The Rainbow, Jordan and Frisby valleys in British Columbia’s rare inland temperate rainforest are home to endangered species and ancient trees.
    • Two logging companies hold licences to log in the old-growth valleys, while the government agency BC Timber Sales has operating areas there.
    • A 2019 proposal to permanently protect 10,500 hectares in the three valleys as a provincial park has gained renewed interest as Revelstoke city council announced in February that it supports increased conservation of the critically endangered inland temperate rainforest.
