Because firefox devs are... weird. I don't even mean that detrimentally, just observationally.

You can un-hide that bar permanently, but when you do, it always covers the edge of the webpage.

# scrollbar fixes

user_pref("widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.style", 1);

user_pref("layout.testing.overlay-scrollbars.always-visible", true);

I literally cannot see the benefit in hiding the scrollbar. It sounds like an edge case made primary.



FF devs have to justify their jobs like any other. Someone was promoted for shipping a fancy-looking feature that some other browser, somewhere, probably has as default.

Still better than the Borg, at least you can fix it.
