I'm in the middle ground. When I first heard the complaints, I thought I was going to hate it.

After using it, I simply don't care. It's fine either way to me.

I don't care that much about the tab change, but the contrast against the background for the URL and search boxes has gone waaaay down, to the point where I'm finding it noticeably slower to acquire them. (I have to look for the text in the box now, rather than the box itself, because the latter is nearly invisible.)

I used to use Safari, until Big Sur came out and ruined its UI by making the contrast way too low -- I was having trouble even distinguishing where the page content ended and the browser chrome began at a glance.

So I switched to Firefox a few months back... It's disappointing that they've now made exactly the same mistake, but at least there's Firefox Color [1] that allows me to easily restore some contrast without spending time writing my own CSS.

Exactly. First impression is meh, but I'll get used to it. Whatever.
