I don't understand what tab groups are from the description in the article. How are they different from keeping groups of tabs in separate browser windows? Is this just something I don't understand because I don't keep tabs open forever?

Pleased they are back - however, the back and forth decisions by firefox is giving me whiplash.

8 years ago they deleted working tab groups and claimed like a fraction of a percent used them. Now they are back...
They are making and killing stuff so fast. Lockwise, send, vpn, etc
I change my mind all the time after 8 years. Im glad Firefox does this as well.
Corporations aren't people
To be fair, the original Panorama implantation wasn't the best. A lot has changed in eight years and it's a lot easier to build and maintain.
Sorry but this tab groups implementation is weak. I have used many tab groups add-ons for years and so far the best one to my liking is on Sidebery, and tab groups isn't even its main functionality.
it is in beta tbf, i'm sure theyll make it more powerful later
I have no doubt about that. However I also don't think it will surpass what Sidebery offers.
Will this replace the Simple Tabs Group add-on?
Yey
