Yes, but you have to have a custom user.js file or whatever to remove the tabs on top.
Ok, so do that once and you're done. :)
It should be an option in the UI though.
It removes the close/maximize/minimize buttons though. Not ideal.
This is avoidable with the right CSS.
I'm sure you're right lol I just don't know it and its more work than it needs to be.
That it is. Firefox updates have broken my CSS several times now, so I am quite happy for them to add side tab officially.
I remember back in the day (FF 4?) I had the window buttons, tabs, back/forward, URL bar, etc all on one row, which was pretty cool. So it was something like this, from left to right:
Firefox, but now would be the hamberger menuIt worked pretty well. It would be nice to do that again.
I have been running vertical tabs for a while now and it's broken about 3 times, once every few months. Currently, I've had no min/maximise/close buttons for about a week because I can't be bothered to fix it. Far from "one and done".
