I use sway so I don't need those buttons on my browsers (torbrowser-launcher and librewolf) and I wanted to know if I can get rid of those buttons and if so how?
thanks in advance :) |

What window manager / desktop environment are you using? Is this for a kiosk? |

OP wrote that the window manager is sway. My first thought is that this is a Sway question, but the mention of librewolf makes me suspect that these buttons are not actually window management buttons, but widgets that the application decided to draw on itself, and which it happens to handle in the same way that a window management button would be handled by the window manager. If so, then the question is how to get these specific applications to behave and stop presenting redundant widgets. |

Are those applications using client-side window decorations by any chance?
Although I don't use either of them nor sway, I can easily imagine this mess pushed by gnome causing problems on pretty much everything else. _________________ Make Computing Fun Again |

Sorry. Failed to read.
If they are chromium browsers (it looks like they are) right click on a bank space of the "tab" area and either
- click "use system title bar and borders"
- click "customize" and check "titlebar" at the bottom
See video where I tesetd this with Librewolf (on KDE though but it should be the same.)
