Opera workspaces in firefox (lemmy.world)

Hi! With all the stuff going on I want to switch to Firefox. I got incredibly used to the sidebar in Opera Though and really want something similar.

E.g. Having WhatsApp in the side tab and not in the header tabs (so I can't close it accidently) or different t workspaces for different projects has proven incredibly helpful. Also on opera I can open 2 Windows with the same workspace and get different tabs making it really useful for programming.

I've looked around for plugin like that but could only find one where the tabs were also shown on the side and the top.

If anyone could help me here that would be great, I am really on the fence of switching to way land and ff on my machine.

I think you'd prefer floorp instead. It's firefox/gecko based (I believe that's your main concern?) but has many features inspired by vivaldi/opera, including workspaces, web panels, vertical tabs...

After spending a day with it, this is exactly what I want! Thanks for the recommendation

Workspaces in flooro are poorly implemented though I would still suggest flooro as well. With the sidebery extension you can get some very good organization done
