I switched from Windows 7 to Windows 10 x64 Pro (10.0.18363.592 Version 1909 (January 2020 Update)), Pale Moon v28.8.2.1
Is there a way to reduce line spacing in my bookmark list?
The same list looks different In Win 7 and Win 10:

You are pretty much subject to the OS Style and Metrics in most places on the Default Theme. That is the point of the Default Theme. Though userChrome may be able to do a thing.

How? What do you need to write into userChrome?

userChrome.css
Code: Select all
/* height of the bookmark menu */
/* menupopup[placespopup], v27 */
menupopup[context="placesContext"] {
max-height: 60em !important;
}

That would control the overall height of the menu, not the item spacing.

Try this in
userChrome.css.

You may want to play around with the numbers. I don't have Windows 10, but just plugged in numbers that made everything in the menu significantly smaller on my Windows 7 machine. This included making the fonts smaller, which may not be what you pictured.
(To affect all of your pulldown/popup menus, substitute
menupopup for
#bookmarksMenuPopup )
Code: Select all
#bookmarksMenuPopup menu, #bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem {
height: 12px !important;
font-size: 10px !important;
padding-top: 0px !important;
padding-bottom: 0px !important;
}
#bookmarksMenuPopup .menu-iconic-icon {
max-height: 12px !important;
max-width: 12px !important;
}

So I tried.
The maximum I have achieved is a small reduction in line spacing with this code:
Code: Select all
#bookmarksMenuPopup menu, #bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem {
height: 0px !important;
font-size: 12px !important;
padding-top: 0px !important;
padding-bottom: 0px !important;
}
Only one parameter (height) had a real effect on the reduction.
Have anyone got any other creative suggestions?

BTW, I found "Compact Moon" theme by Lootyhoof:
https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/compact-moon-theme/
With this theme, my bookmark list looks even more compact than on Windows 7:
I like this one very much. But I don't like what everything else looks like
Is there any way to change the default theme so that the bookmark list looks the same?

Perhaps you should try the options extension, which configures how the theme looks:

Wasn't as tricky as I thought. Just a couple of lines of code!
userChrome.css:
Code: Select all
#bookmarksMenuPopup menu, #bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem{
margin-top:-4px !important;
}
... and voila!

Nice one. Quick question: does applying css visual 'tricks' have a performance impact on the browser?

I didn't notice a drop in performance. Everything running like clockwork.

It shouldn't, unless your "tricks" are creating specific issues with layer rendering (which is possible) or generally use expensive processes on often-updated elements.
