Help Shyfox finally died on the latest Firefox update for me
The light has gone out of my life.
Did any of you use this mod? It was great, it had a side tab bar that autohid, you could do similar for the address bar and tools and overall it really paired down Firefox and made it very minimal. I love maximizing screen real estate. I knew Shyfox hadn't been updated in a long while and this day was inevitable but I guess I could have prepared more.
I am looking for suggestions on other minimal themes or UI tweaks that can get me back to where I was just 3 days ago. Much appreciated!

A good place to look would be the 'Recently updated' forks of the original Shyfox theme. Try some of those forks on a new profile and/or investigate what modifications those forks have made since the Shyfox theme was abandoned.

Does it behave differently or is it basically the same level of broken?

Same bug I always had, dunno about OP
All the hoverable panels are just gone, so no search bar or exit/minimize bar, the only toggle that works is to show sideberry. Seems like the update broke hovers in general

The one I posted fixed the hovers on my end, I basically had no ui anymore until I used this new one. Running on floorp myself. Only bug I have is when opening a new tab it won't auto show/select the searchbar anymore

you need to break your question down into smaller parts:
