Firefox still doesn't have vertical tabs which I've found really useful for my workflow right now, so I use a fork called Pulse. Don't want to use any extensions for it when Pulse and other forks do it natively.

There's a million add-ons that add this, isn't there? I have one installed at home that basically makes it into what arc has

Probably, but between the disabling of userChrome.css (even if you can enable it via about:config) and a possible conflict between other addons I use, I'm comfy with my Pulse setup.

sorry, why not tree style tabs?

you can hide the normal tab bar and only have the tree style ones on the side

I explain it in another comment, tl;dr: have to edit userChrome.css to give it a more streamlined look (and Mozilla calls that feature "legacy" in about:config since v69 which kinda worries me about that feature's removal) and I'm not sure if some extensions might conflict (Would it have issues with Simple Tab Groups). Pulse does it natively and really well, so I'm happy with it.

I know it's most likely not relevant with you anymore, since you're using Pulse, but have you tried any of the vertical/tree tab extensions?

I used Tree Style Tab but I didn't like having to change the userChrome.css to make it streamlined (i.e. hiding the tab bar), while Pulse does it natively and really well. I do have an extension for tab groups that imitates Vivaldi's tab workspaces though, not sure if those will conflict. (If you're curious, it's called Simple Tab Groups.)

Edit: There's also the issue of Mozilla calling the editable userChrome.css a legacy feature, which kinda worries me about its possible removal. Pulse having vertical tabs as a native feature skips that.
