MASSIVE UI, like what? Why does the UI take half the screen? I specifically left Firefox for Floorp because of the massive UI, and then left Floorp for Vivaldi once I got addicted to Workspaces and saw that Vivaldi just does them better as they are really well integrated. Zen doesn't provide me anything of value, and actually takes away some. So, no thanks.

Could you take a screenshot of its massiveness?

I'll admit I was a bit too harsh, but the UI I like to see on my browser is equivalent to Qutebrowser's aka close to none, just the slimmest tab bar possible.

Well, it's not bigger than Floorp or Vivaldi to me.

On Floorp, I used one of the old UIs from the settings, with bookmarks, panel and everything else disabled.

On Vivaldi, I use Custom CSS so I only get the tab bar (I'm experimenting with having it on the left hand side so I can see all my tabs and navigate more easily between them, with Ctrl-Up/Down to move focus, and Ctrl-Shift-Up/Down to move the tab in the list/stack)

Edit: Correction: On Floorp, I also got an address bar. On Vivaldi, I use a custom keybind to get the address bar to show up when I need it.
