I switched from Zen back to Firefox because of bugs and forced features like window sync which many users including myself don't want. I really miss having the entire UI on the side, I really don't care about Zen's other features.

I've had zero bugs from Zen and what do u mean by window sync?
They made a dumb new feature and rolled it out without thinking of how users would respond. Essentially it syncs all of the same tabs to multiple browser instances. It can't be turned off, but it's stupid that it was released in the first place.
Huh so if u have 2 instances of Zen open it syncs tabs between them? I don't really have that problem cos I have everything pretty well isolated in different qubes so I don't ever need multiple instances on the same machine
