Chrome and Edge have native vertical tabs. I was an Edge user before the Manifest V3 fiasco, and it's the one feature I dearly miss. There are extensions to add this functionality to FF, but they require extensive setup, and every new FF update breaks them.
Edge also had shortcuts to open a link in new tab and switch to it or stay on the current tab.
It's the little things that you don't really notice until they're gone.
I've been using a vertical tabs extension in FF for a couple years now and it has never once broken during update. I don't recall setup being complicated either. Which one are you using?
I'm not on desktop atm but when I get home I'll check which one I have. It's not as good as Arc's implementation but it's serviceable.
Don't forget grouping tabs! I used that a lot to group all my youtube tabs, and reddit tabs. It makes it easy to minimize them all in one go, which leads to a neater browser experience without having to close all the tabs...
I recently switched back to Firefox after using Chrome for like a decade, and one of the first extensions I installed was a tab grouper that allows me to group tabs into my own custom gcontainers while still only using one window. As a tab hoarder, it's been a life saver.
What's the name of it?? I thought I looked everywhere when I made the swap early summer..
It's called Simple Tab Groups, and it's actually a Firefox recommended extension:
