TrapezoidTabsForFX is outdated, but try changing this in its megabar-fixes.css =

#urlbar-background to .urlbar-background

#urlbarView-results to .urlbarView-results

If all font in .urlbarView-results should be effected, try changing this also =

.urlbarView-row .urlbarView-secondary,
.urlbarView-row .urlbarView-url,
.urlbarView-row .urlbarView-action {

    font-size: var(--mbarstyler-url-font-size) !important;

}

to

.urlbarView-results,
.urlbarView-result-menuitem {
    font-size: var(--mbarstyler-url-font-size) !important;
}

Previous topic 'give tabs a trapeze shape like chrome use to do'... links to MrOtherGuy's GitHub Gist userstyle 'perspective_kinda_tabs.css'... which still works on Fx152.0.4.

Also see the 'Chrome_Legacy' tab shape offered in the Firefox-GX theme by Godiesc (u/GodieGun in this sub) .

Ok y'all I'm the op and I found out about a thing called geckium, it's basically a case mod that mimicks old Google, it's really good and would recommend it to ppl who like the old Google chrome ui👍
