Safari 15 tabs with compact layout

Hi, I'm still getting used to Safari 15 on macOS Big Sur. In general, I like the concept of combining the tab bar and the URL address bar via the "Compact" tab layout. But I do not like the "show color in tab bar" option, so I've disabled that.


But this combination of settings renders all tabs (including the active/address bar "tab") in exactly the same color, making it next to impossible to quickly determine the currently active tab.


Are others seeing this? If so, any way to fix it?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 11.6

Try this:

Safari -> Preferences -> Tabs -> click on Separate.



The active tab is gray.
