Linux

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.

kinda excited to see what their native vertical tabs will look like. i’ve been using sidebery for the past ~3 years and i’m extremely satisfied with it, i somehow doubt their native version will look as good

Same but for tab groups. I can't believe it took this long and every extension-based alternative is busted in some fundamental way.

Even if it doesn't look as good, it'll hopefully include some better APIs that extensions can utilise to improve their experience. E.g. hide the native tabs.

hide the native tabs

YES! i currently have to use custom css to achieve this, would be so much more convenient if it was an extension
