It always bothers me about this whole vertical tab concept, that, on a theoretical level, I'm fully on board with what you're saying. But in practice, I'll often have Firefox tiled side-by-side with another window, and then it's painful for that sidebar to take up any space at all.

I am happy, though, that this feature is being integrated for the people that find it useful.

Hear me out, responsive tabs. Wide browser window? Vertical tabs. Narrow browser window? Horizontal tabs.

Yeah... technology just isn't there yet for mozilla. Good idea though, just not feasible. Best they can do are chatbots.

I have a keybind to close the tab side window. Works pretty nicely when i have firefox tiled beside some other window. I don't need to see the tabs all the time. But when i am looking at them; it's nice to have them stacked, on the side.

The tabs could collapse to just an icon and expand when hovering over it, it still takes up some space, but not nearly as much

there's already an extension that shows your tabs in the sidebar and you can easily enable and disable it with a button
