Recreates the feel of Quantum with its squared tabs and menus. No rounded corners to be seen.
If you hate rounded corners like me, this is for you. Only square corners.
These tweaks attempt to recreate the feel of Quantum with its squared tabs and menus, but in the Proton UI. As of FF91, the about:config
option to disable proton has been deprecated, leaving CSS as the main way to revert the UI.
