As a Ubuntu Linux user all the controls are on the left side of the page for all applications except for Firefox, though oddly the Library page has its controls on the left side. I had some User Chrome CSS code that solved this problem until the release of Firefox 65, How do I move the page controls back to the left side please?

You probably need this selector for Firefox 65.

.titlebar-buttonbox-container {}

I have tried using that selector, with a very crude float :left just to see if anything happens, and nothing happens, restarting Firefox with that in the CSS results in the 3 buttons remaining on the right hand side as before. I assume that the required location for the User Chrome file has not been changed by the upgrade to Firefox 65?

The solution was not to change the CSS but to tick the box in the customize page to enable the Title Bar, and the window controls moved to the left side - Solved.
