This is the maximum screen space u can use without "full-screening" ur Firefox with F11.

How to do it?

Simple. As most of us know, the Tiny Menu add-on/extension which replaces the standard Firefox menu bar with a tiny menu popup.
After installing this extension, right-click on the menu bar -> Customize, and then drag-drop all unnecessary buttons onto the Customize pop-up.
Select Show "Icons". Tick-mark "Use small buttons".

Then, in the white-space which replaces the Full Menu(File, Edit...) earlier.., drag-drop other buttons and address bar to get this all in the same line (such that the navigation toolbar is empty now). Disable Navigation ToolBar. Voila!!! A space gain of @least 15%.

I would also request you to use the theme IFox Smooth by Radar.250x for best results.

It as simple as that. And very effective. See how much screen space I saved. Normally about 80-70% screen space is taken by all these buttons and the rest. Now I've @least 95% visibility.

Wrong. you can autohide the Menu bar, Status bar & tab bar :))

I use another extension called FullerScreen plus my own Stylish scripts for autohiding/toggling my toolbars in Normal screen mode. Use CustomButtons extension to make your own Toggle Buttons for custom toolbars.
Long Live DOMi :D

I just move the addressbar, searchbar, toolbar buttons, etc. to Menubar and disable other toolbars. So it just takes only menubar space. :D
