If you are looking for a minimal, yet functional Firefox userChrome stylesheet...you might like this one!

Note: Firefox update 72.0 basically broke just about everything. I have fixed almost everything and pushed the fixed userChrome file. However if you encounter any bugs feel free to open an issue. Thanks!
