I think we need all support we can get to fight Google on this, so I welcome Brave here actually.

Use this link to avoid going to Twitter:

Tab groups is the biggest thing I'm missing after I made the switch the other week. I'm used to having loads of tabs open, so not being able to easily minimize the ones I'm currently using is annoying to say the least.

One plus is containers. Only opening Meta sites in their own container, same with Google/Youtube is pretty neat.

Tab groups and container tabs are the two things I want. Tab groups I'm missing a lot. The extension is not available on mobile.

Remembered one more thing; in Firefox I can only have 31 tabs open before the scroll bar appears. In Chrome it's closer to 90-100! That's kinda huge imo.

If you go to the about:config page you can edit browser.tabs.tabMinWidth down to 50 (default is 76) which lets you fit a bit more
If you want more than that it's possible by editing the userchrome:

Modifying userchrome is admittedly difficult if you're not a developer.. but not out of reach if you're able to follow a guide.

I did set the tabMinWidth first, but the result was... lackluster... to say the least (I like having ~50-100 tabs per window....). However, I JUST found out about userChrome.css before you wrote, and also found code that worked for it!

For anyone else interested:

Guide on creating the userChrome.css file: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html

Code that should be added to the file: .tabbrowser-tab { min-width: 1em !important; clip-width: 1em !important; }
