The user interface of a web browser is a special case because it is often a user interface on top of another one, that of the website or web application.
There’s no accounting for taste. Microsoft applications like Edge have user interfaces that are adaptive to the task at hand. At the other end of the spectrum, the Firefox interface is old school because it has a more traditional interface where icons and menus are the same regardless of what context you are working within.
While there are differences in approach, the overall layout of a web browser has become fairly standardised over the years. Scoring is difficult because not every extra feature or innovation is a good idea, and some things simply get in the way. We’re going to second-guess the mood of our readers: it’s about time that browsers offer a multifunction sidebar, but some of the ‘intelligent’ features just get in the way.
