User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:92.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/92.0
Steps to reproduce:
Just open a few tabs, using the official light theme, on Firefox 92.
Actual results:
The tabs looks too similar (between current tab / other tab) to me, and I often close the wrong one.
(To close I sometime use middle click on currently focused tab, I know, I should use C-w, maybe I avoid C-w because sometimes I hit C-q and it closes Firefox).
Expected results:
The currently viewed tab should be eaiser to spot.
TBH in one of my two screens it's just OK, but in a less contrasted screen the gray shadow is very dim, my eyes cannot tell the difference between f0f0f4 and ffffff .
Add to this the colored bars (as I use Multi-Accounts Container ♥), with no luck I can have an unfocused tab with a big blue container line near to a focused tab with no container line: boom I think the one with the blue line is the current one.
Don't get me wrong: I love the new style, I love the multi-accounts container extension, and I love how it reflects with colors in the tabs.
And no, I won't provide any idea on how to enhance this, I'm very, very bad at UI/UX.
Yes I tried using it ~one week to see if I adapt or no, looks like I did not adapted in a week. I mainly open the issue to see if I'm alone (and I'll train myself at it) of if many people feel the same (and it should be "fixed").

You can try a different theme. I had a similar problem with default theme (I could distinguish colors, but I thought the one with more similar color to the urlbar was current), but I never have this problem with my adapted theme (the current tab looks like a nice floating button which I get used to in days).
