From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Why? Why not an extra bar like all other browsers? I suppose that is possible too? But idk.
I would really like to get some shortcuts for some sites.
Also, I think tab groups are way more important. SimpleTabGroups is constantly losing its state, containers, pinned bookmarks, its a total pain.
Why?
Because It is better for reading on websites. Normally there is just a ton of space to the sides of the text, and it would make more sense to actually use it.
Why not an extra bar like all other browsers?
What... do you mean? They have the top bar like other browsers. A lot of other browsers have vertical tabs now too.

Add them then?

I never said they aren't. Also, they do have container tabs, they just hide it in about:config.
Yeah these are 2 separate things, both important.
Horizontal tabs, in the hidden "compact" mode dont take up lots of space, less space than vertical ones.
A sidebar would conflict with vertical tabs I think. Like in Brave, where you can add just a few sites.
Tab containers are way more important than groups and a killer feature of FF.
