Don't kill my search bar.

We’ve simplified the address bar by trimming “https://”/ from secure sites, while clearly highlighting when a site isn’t secure. This small change improves clarity without sacrificing awareness.
Ugh, fuck this.
Show me the entire url.I don't see the problem, given it'll still show the full url if you click on it, and it will highlight when it's http

Fuck off with hiding the URL, ever. Including the protocol.
For the last fifteen years, the best course of action has been, STOP COPYING CHROME. People who want what Chrome does - just use Chrome! We didn't choose a different browser because we want a different icon!

The only thing that wasn’t clear from the article was how to put a URL in the URL bar.

I guess I'm the only loser nerd to like this change. They basically turned the address bar into a command line. It reminds me of Vimperator command line of the wild pre-extension revamp days when you had commands to do or automate pretty much anything with keyboard commands. You could actually use the browser without a mouse. Good times.

Yeah exactly! Get rid of that stupid tab bar - Chrome has it, so why should another browser? Tab groups? No use! Easy-to-use profiles? Chuck 'm out!
(aka even though Chrome does a lot of stuff that's wrong, not everything Chrome does is wrong by definition.)

Nah, you and I are the only loser nerds who like it and are crazy enough to leave a comment.

It would be helpful if they fix the bug that renders the address bar unclickable
Ah that's this one I think? It sounded like they've got a feeling for what's happening, so hopefully they'll manage to find out what causes it and fix it. Either way didn't sound like it was unfixed for lack of attention.

I don't like it, but I appreciate your opinion. I'm open to being convinced it's cool, so hearing positive opinions is a positive
Thank you
