Since the FF update, why does the open tabs panel retract when a page is selected and is there a way to keep it visible?

Since the recent update on FF android, the tab panel that appeared on the left of the tablet screen now retracts when a tab is selected. This means that I have to scroll back to the toolbar to select the tab icon to switch to a different open tab. I prefer the old option which left all the tabs visible on the side making it easy to swtich between them. Is there any way to turn this off?

hello cressingdad, the change was made to provide more space for the actual web-content. please try this in order to get back the old behaviour: enter about:config into the address bar, search for the preference named browser.chrome.dynamictoolbar & change its value to false.

As stated before, this just keeps the adress bar from disappearing, the open tabs bar will still disappear :/
