Multi-account containers are almost indispensable for developers. As for tab groups, I am currently using an add-on to manage them, but having a native feature would be very cool.
I tried using SimpleTabGroups and I didn’t understand how to use it. Perhaps i’m coming from using Safari instead. Regardless, firefox is a very good browser and i’m using it on my PC!
You have the extension button, a tab context menu (right clicking on a tab) and thats it.
The extension can do a lot, but basically you go to the extension icon in the extension area and create groups, you click on the group and all other tabs are hidden away. Then you open tabs here, you can right click on a tab to move between groups and also set the tabs favicon (the small icon) as the tab group icon.
You click in the menu on another group and the current tabs are hidden and you move there.
It can also work with container tabs (isolated cookies) so allow to use multiple accounts, and I think the hidden tabs are frozen, taking less RAM and CPU
Multi-account containers + tab groups would make Firefox the perfect browser for me, and I wouldn’t be able to use anything else.

SimpleTabGroups and the ability to place pinned addons in any area of the browser UI already gives you that

I need tiling as well. But even without that, Firefox is my daily driver.
A better frontend for about:profiles would be great as well.
