Noooo it has AI garbage, what the hell.
I really need this feature, I have over 500 tabs open right now, I just hope it works well.
Considering I’ve been screeching this to myself, I wonder how they heard.
I had to enable them:
about:config
->browser.tabs.groups.enabled
->true
Finally! Thank you!
Now do vertical tab groups pleeease
What do you mean by vertical tab groups? Cause we just got tab groups and a while ago we got vertical tabs. And you can ofc use them together. Isn’t that vertical tab groups?
I don’t think you canOMG You’re right
Try using Zen, it’s basically Firefox with vertical tab groups.
Been loving the feature.
My next hope is that they’ll upgrade tab groups so (when collapsed) I can move them around like normal tabs. Right now it’s a little awkward if I start the group in the wrong spot.
Why not just using fucking bookmarks? What’s the point of all this “organization” when it’s ephemeral anyway? I don’t get it why most people are so allergic to bookmarks.
Bookmarks I use for pages I want to store for a longer time. Tab groups I can use for pages I have open at the moment, e.g. because I’m working on X and Y, so I group the tabs based on X or Y. But I don’t need to keep the tabs between sessions.
I would much rather see Tree Style Tab be integrated.
Doesn’t seem to indicate whether groups will work with vertical tabs and unless that’s the case, I’m not switching from TST.
Waterfox does this with an improved implementation of tree style tabs. Also zero Mozilla Corp telemetry, opt-in or otherwise.
ok, mozilla is at least doing stuff we want along with ai garbage now.
Thankfully, the useful changes trickle downstream to Waterfox, LibreWolf, Floorp, etc.
the beauty of foss
AI garbage seemingly pays the bills…
Great. Now do Guest mode. It’s a must-have for places like libraries and internet cafes - if Firefox equalled Chrome in this regard it’d easily gain a percent on the market share scale.
Is Guest mode different from Private Browsing?
In fact - no, it’s just a reskin of incognito to make it not feel like you’re not watching porn.
Which might make it feel like a non-issue and a useless thing to add, but flip that around - it’s a low-cost, potentially very high-reward improvement. It really should’ve been implemented ages ago.
The only things that need to be changed is the new tab page and the toolbar - both design “improvements”.
Sorry, I’m not totally following here.
What is Guest mode, exactly? Esp if not just a containerized session that clears all cookies, history, and personal data when closed.
It literally is just Incognito (Private browsing), a little reskinned. Pretty much a temporary container living as long as the Ghest window - just like Incognito.
Been using it for a couple of months now at work. It’s good.
I also appreciate how intuitively it works. I wasn’t aware of this feature when it first landed in developer edition, but after I accidentally created a group with drag and drop, the feature just clicked.
Have any Simple Tab Group users tried out Mozilla’s very overdue revisit to this functionality?
I’m interested in pros and cons before switching over.
This update borked my Sidebery config. It doesn’t expand on hover anymore. I will look into it after I wake up but does anyone have an idea what could they changed on CSS?
Pretty much every update screws up my config these days, but it’s good because it means they’re actually working on improving the interface
I also asked for compact mode. Where’s that?
Was I signed up for some beta? I’ve had firefox groups for a few weeks now.
And holy shit do I need em.
They do A/B testing for everything now. Why? No clue.
A/B testing a very effective mass testing ground, I’m surprised some people don’t do it. Amazon is probably doing a few dozen a/b tests constsntly
welcome Firefox to 2021
