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.

Still waiting for something as basic as group tabs.
The current implementation in Chromium-based browsers is miles ahead of what any add-on can do in Firefox.
They need to get their shit together.
My brother in christ, you can customize the add-ons.
Tree style tab > tab groups.
Can you make it look and work like both of these pictures?
If yes: How?
If no: That's my point.

The second one, I am not sure about colour coding like that, just because I have not tried, the trees you will have, however, including sub-trees. I would bet you can get the colour coding too.
First one, no idea how you would go about that, I don’t think it’s possible, but I don’t have the top tab bar, I disabled it since i use the TST sidebar. I remember there was a tab group plugin but it placed the tabs in separate menu items with the menu in the extension area.
Interesting but should be baked in.
I've been using tree-style tabs since I've switched back to Firefox. It works really well and I've even disabled the tab-bar and am only using the side panel.
imo the tab grouping extension in Firefox is way better than Chrome's built-in solution. I can't remember the name though since I'm on mobile.
Is there a proposal, are they working on it? Open a proposal if its not the case
