Tab bar

Does anyone know why the tab bar/favorites bar is constantly interrupting my view when I try to type anything in the google search bar, amazon search bar, etc. It looks like the search bar is being cut in half by the tab bar and I have to move the mouse in a certain angle to reach the search tab to start typing. I already tried hiding the favorites bar but the problem remains the same. It does not let me hide the tab bar.


Please help! It is driving me crazy

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.2
