I see that the status here is "undecided". Somebody that is interested in having us continue to use Firefox should be very interested. This is annoying enough that I've been using Chrome more often, and I hate Chrome.
We shouldn't have to hunt for the scrollbar handle. On long pages the scrollbar handle is never visible. As programmers, we're all aware of usability issues, and it's hard to imagine that this one slipped through.

(ubuntu-gnome has the same problem, fwiw.) The expected behaviour is that the scrollbars should widen when you hover over them, the same as with other gnome 3.20+ apps.
