The preference browser.urlbar.trimURLs controls whether the protocol http and the trailing slash behind domain name (if the open page is exactly the domain name) are hidden.

Values

true (default)
If the active url is exactly the domain name, the trailing slash (/) behind the top level domain will be hidden. If the address starts with http:// and neither starts with a ftp. subdomain nor contains @ (usually for ftp login information), the http:// prefix will be hidden.

Examples: https://www.example.org/ becomes https://www.example.org, http://www.example.org/foobar becomes www.example.org/foobar and http://ftp.example.org/foobar remains unchanged.
false
All parts of the url are shown.
