Not sure why this would be a big problem, as disabling favicons is only possible through about:config, bu if caused by our work, Mark might be able to fix it.

Yes this is caused after Bug 1470947 and/or Bug 1446101 By default a globe icon was shown by Firefox if site icon was missing, not provided by the site(happens alot) or disabled by the user. Now IT's a large blank space so this is a regression. Plus now there is a blank space before the site icon which is ugly too see as well as reduces the tab title visible which is just bad UX. There should be no blank space before Icons just like in FF60 see attachment.

Thanks for helping me understand this better. The case where there is no icon provided by the website seams to be the bigger one here, as it will be experienced by more people. I agree that this has a bad impact on the readability of the list, and should be filled with a placeholder. I updated the bug summary accordingly. Mark, can you fix this?

Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
(In reply to Jason Mechelynck from comment #3) > Plus now there is a blank space before the site icon which is ugly too see This space helps separate foreground from background content. > as well as reduces the tab title visible which is just bad UX. The width is not about showing all text, but ensuring a balance between line length, and the ease of identifying individual tabs. The new width is set to show an average of 66 characters, which is the optimal line length for readability, and will also ensure that by far most website-titles will be easily differentiated. (If not all 66 characters are identical.) There is no bad UX in that.

The old all tab list showed more info than the current one plain and simple especially with disabling site icons which allowed more characters.

Are you talking about: a) the highlight of the active tab (which was bold text, and now is a blue line and bold text - soon) b) the highlight of each row when hovered with the mouse or focused with the keyboard (which was blue, and now is gray background on the row) c) something else (please specify)

Dão, can you request uplift if you think this fix should go into 62? If it goes too much later it'll be too late in the beta cycle.
