I really want to use Firefox, but feels a bit odd (self.firefox)

Don't get me wrong, I like Firefox a lot, but needs polishing.

I like -impopular opinion- the Proton UI (aka rounded tabs), containers are great, but has some flaws:

  • No PWA support
  • Bookmarks and history panels are unpractical (menus for both options are almost unusable)
  • A separate window for downloads, managing bookmarks? Really?
  • Pocket by default?

We need alternatives to Chromium, and Firefox is the "go to" option, but sometimes is disappointing to use it.

I just want a tab grouping sustem that works EXACTLY as it does on Edge, together with the vertical tabs.
I'd rather be using Firefox, but that Edge feature alone made me switch back to it.

I like sideberry extension for vertical tabs and tab grouping

Thank you, I was checking it out.

It's nice, but it doesn't carry on the seamless functionality as in Edge.

I use a mix of vertical and horizontal tabs across multiple windows, so that has a lot of value for me.

I sure hope we can get an official grouping/vertical tab feature that is on par with the Edge one some day.
