Review summary

Users appreciate the add-on for restoring the close tab button functionality lost in Firefox Quantum, valuing its simplicity and reliability. However, multiple reviews highlight the lack of customization options, particularly inability to change the color or size of the close button, and imperfect replication of original Firefox behavior by showing close buttons on all tabs plus the title bar. Compatibility issues with CSS features and missing functionalities like middle-click reopening of closed tabs are also noted. Overall, it fulfills an important need but could be improved with more customization and better integration.

Pros

Effectively restores the close tab button functionality missing in newer Firefox versions.
Simple and reliable, works as advertised even with newer Firefox versions like v109.0.
Appreciated by users who use custom Firefox styles or miss the Tab Mix Plus extension.
Adds a close button to the title bar and removes close buttons from tabs as intended.
User-friendly and fills a specific functionality gap post-Firefox Quantum update.

Cons

Lack of customization options like changing the color of the close (X) button, which affects visibility especially in dark mode.
Does not perfectly replicate original behavior; users want the close button only on active tabs or only on the title bar, but the add-on shows buttons on all tabs plus the title bar.
Compatibility issues with certain Firefox CSS options like 'Hide lone tab' where close button behavior is inconsistent.
No option to scale or resize the close button, some users request smaller or adjustable button sizes.
No middle-click action to reopen last closed tab, which some users miss.

2023-01-21	oo*****	Been using this add-on for years and it still works fine with v109.0 of Firefox. I use a custom Firefox style which eliminates the tab bar (instead relying on All Tabs Helper for navigating tabs via a pulldown list), so this add-on fills the need to quickly close a tab that I'm viewing. I wish we could change the color of the "X" icon, but that's not a deal-breaker.
