I really wonder if this will make any people move from Chrome to Firefox at all because they can't use their adblockers anymore. There are probably so few people that most of them already are on Firefox I guess.
The only thing keeping me from Firefox is native tab groups, I use that all the time.
What does that do? Never heard about that
On Chrome, you can join tabs into a colored group with a name and then collapse that group so that it occupies considerably less space in the bar. Useful to organize your browsing into tidy buckets.
On Firefox, there's no adequate innate manner of doing that. But the browser has an add-on called simple tab groups that uses a native "hidden tabs" feature to make a similar approach. The difference is it adds a button to the left that becomes a drop-down menu, and each of the entries is a colored and named group, and pressing one, hides the rest and bring up the tabs you previously in the one selected.
I find either just as good, and instrumental to browsing. For example, I have a red group just for YouTube, where like 20 tabs are open and to or from which I occasionally drag a tab.
Sideberry is really good and can do all of that and much more. You need to have a custom userChrome.css to hide the native tab bar though
Hm alright, I only know of "spaces" on Firefox (also colour coded, but I don't think you can collapse them), very useful if you have multiple accounts for Google lets say, but in different contexts (like work or private), you can use that so you don't have to log in every time.
Also thanks for the explanation:)
