When you're waiting for the website to respond, there is a very small black blob that moves backwards and forwards from left to right in the firefox browser Tab of the window you are using. It is too small especially if there are a dozen Tabs, or more.. Is there any way/Add-On to make this larger/more obvious please?

Hi

Thank you for your feedback. It is a difficult one to judge as I am sure that for every person who would like the indicator to be larger, there is another that would like it to be smaller.

I am not aware of any add-on that will change the size of the indicator, but you are welcome to search the Mozilla add-on site for one (should it exist).

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or developers. If you want to leave feedback for developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select either Share ideas and feedback… or Submit feedback…, depending on your Firefox version. Alternatively, you can use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

You can also file a bug report or feature request. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.

You should also see that loading indicator in the tab manager (list all tabs) drop-down list.

You can set browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled = true on the about:config page to have the "List all tabs" button permanently visible on the Tab bar. In this case pinned tabs are also included in its list. You can possibly move this button to the left end via customize mode.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, you can click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.

Firefox 63+ has support for "@media (prefers-reduced-motion)" to honor system Settings to minimize the amount of non-essential motion. You can create a new Number pref named ui.prefersReducedMotion on the about:config page to show (0) or block (1) some animations.

  • in Firefox 78+ this includes the location bar breakout
  • in Firefox 80+ this replaces the tab loading indicator with an hourglass
  • set the value to 1 if you want to block

animations
ui.prefersReducedMotion = 1

  • set its value to 0 if you want to see animations
    ui.prefersReducedMotion = 0
