I switched from Zen back to Firefox because of bugs and forced features like window sync which many users including myself don't want. I really miss having the entire UI on the side, I really don't care about Zen's other features.

You can disable Window Sync on Zen.

This is a FEATURE? I've been frustrated with this "bug" for WEEKS whenever I needed a clean auxiliary browser window with only a tab or two and the hundreds of tabs from the main window got duplicated in the new one making it equally hard to navigate. Sheez.

Yep. I gave it an earnest try but I really don't get it either.

A quick fix seemed to be mapping Cmd+N to Blank Window instead of New Window

Last I tried that would break other basic things, making it unusable for everyday use, so I just changed browsers. Is it working 100% now?

I faced a barrage of issues when the option first rolled out too, but they've fixed a good chunk of them.
At least for my daily usage I haven't hit any bugs for a while now.
