The most requested Vertical Tabs will make an appearance in the upcoming Firefox. The feature can now be turned on in Nightly itself without the need to rely on third-party extensions or separate Nightly builds.
@Perhyte@cloudless Agree, but fwiw, IMO, #Sidebery is even more powerful & flexible than #TreeStyleTab AO. After being spoiled by both these for years, #Nightly has heaps of catching up to do before the native solution will become my choice... but i emphatically DO want sophisticated #VerticalTabs to be native, so hope the Devs learn from & adopt from these two AOs.
or even Floorp - though that would be like going ESR.
...but in July, the #Floorp Dev is jumping from #ESR to FF-Release version. Really looking fwd to it. Already Floorp + #Sidebery is wonderful, so soon will be even better.
@waldyrious@Perhyte@cloudless I was a #TST user for many years, before discovering #Sidebery, so i do know how excellent TST is. IMO though, TST lost its way once the Dev chose to remove much core functionality from it, devolving it all instead to myriad companion AOs the user then also must install. As well, various functions some users wanted were explicitly ruled out by the Dev.
Otoh the Sidebery Dev has been immensely receptive to new ideas, as well as feedback for improving existing features, + ALL the functionality of TST exists within Sidebery's Settings without needing to have any companion AOs. There's so much i like about Sidebery, but just to mention a mere handful of benefits over TST:
tab hover preview thumbnails
infinite separate Workspaces [called Tab Panels in Sidebery]
optional integration in the Sidebery Panel of Closed Tabs, Bookmarks, History [done better than in TST]
infinite Session backups & restores
really clever context menu options such that many commonplace tab operations can be done "one handed"... you really need to play with this to understand
My reply is inadequate. Much better would be to install the AO, explore its rich Settings, & play with it all.
