    These are things that add-ons can do. I like sidebery very much for the purpose of tabs grouping.

      Vertical tabs, ActivityPub, and RSS yes; but while Sidebery makes tabs vertical, it can’t actually do grouping on the existing tab bar. Actually, no add-on can touch the tab bar (other than getting rid of it, I think; though that just might be via userchrome css). If they opened up the tab bar for add-ons to fiddle with, I am sure that a decent tab grouping add-on would come out in minutes.

      I’m apparently an old curmudgeon about tabs being on the top of the screen, so anything that moves the tabs to the sidebar is kind of a nonstarter for me. I think it’s because I like to use my computer with multiple applications open side-by-side (or with a browser open on a vertical monitor), for which vertical tabs would take over too much real estate.

      Anyway, they said they’re working on tab grouping, so hopefully in that process they also give some more capabilities in that realm to add-ons.

        Ah, of course. Personaly I like the vertical tabs because of the tree structure and different panels to hide even more.

        By the way, have you tried floorp?

          Not yet. Floorp and Midori are on my list to try out, but I just haven’t had a chance to go through the setup and conversion process yet. Maybe someday.
