Its honestly the only reason i use brave and edge over Firefox. Can fully commit to FF now.
The TreeStyleTab extension for Firefox has added vertical tabs for a decade
The way tree style tabs worked after they broke it was never very good. Floorp is what to use if you wanted side tabs on Firefox.
That said I still went back to Vivaldi after trying to use Floorp because of stupid little ux issues like pinned tabs not being protected from closing, and broken session saving.
Sidebery is a very good implementation of the vertical tab panel
The issue is that because they broke the UI customization that allowed for it all the extensions are just a kludge to add a panel to the side without actually getting rid of the top tabs.
Yes, but you have to have a custom user.js file or whatever to remove the tabs on top.
Ok, so do that once and you're done. :)
It should be an option in the UI though.
It removes the close/maximize/minimize buttons though. Not ideal.
This is avoidable with the right CSS.
I'm sure you're right lol
I just don't know it and its more work than it needs to be.
That it is. Firefox updates have broken my CSS several times now, so I am quite happy for them to add side tab officially.
I remember back in the day (FF 4?) I had the window buttons, tabs, back/forward, URL bar, etc all on one row, which was pretty cool. So it was something like this, from left to right:
Firefox menu - was Firefox, but now would be the hamberger menu
back/forward buttons
extension butons
URL bar
tabs
It worked pretty well. It would be nice to do that again.
I have been running vertical tabs for a while now and it's broken about 3 times, once every few months. Currently, I've had no min/maximise/close buttons for about a week because I can't be bothered to fix it. Far from "one and done".
