    He complains about the priority given.

    @marsup They started working on one of these projects this year and it’s shipping. The other has been in the works for a decade. Guess which one is getting priority.

    source. He is also very aware it’s not ready and even says so

    @ePD5qRxX @marsup It’s very cool that this is possible, but (a) if you have to activate them in about:config, it’s not really “ready"

    I agree with him. Mozilla’s priorities have been wack for more than a decade.

      I don’t understand what he’s saying at all, though.

      They announced both initiatives, LLM and built-in sidebar tabs, I think, even in the same blog post.
      An LLM is much easier to integrate, of course it’s going to be ready a few months earlier.

      I do not understand what was supposedly worked on for 10 years. Assuming he means sidebar tabs because LLMs didn’t exist 10 years ago, yeah, they’ve done the work to allow for extensions to provide sidebar tabs. You install Tree-Style Tabs or similar and you have sidebar tabs.
