When using the Tab key to navigate the top bar, most items have a vertical line to the left and to the right when they are selected. Except for the profile link and the Stack Exchange 'hamburger' menu; see the first and last screenshot below. They only have a vertical line on one side, which makes it harder to see they're selected:

  • I've found those vertical lines to be specific to Firefox and the same problem happens with several other elements. I can't explain it but from experience I guess those are elements with zero distance between them, sometimes the browser will make those very narrow lines.

At some point, the highlighting (shown when Tab'ing) on each of those elements was changed. The entire element is highlighted, instead of two vertical lines on either side of the top bar element.

Here's a GIF showing the current highlight on each of the top bar elements (on the right) when using the Tab key:
