There's still a feature of Chrome that keeps me from switching - Chrome will show a lot more tabs open. I tend to leave a lot of inactive tabs to come back to later, but that means I need to see them all.



Install Tree Style Tab on Firefox. Moves tabs to a tree on the left. You can see a lot more, and better organized too. In the era of landscape screens, I think it's a must.

For native vertical tabs, you can also check Vivaldi.

I have a hard time understanding why, with widescreen so common nowadays, it isn't a standard native feature in all browsers.


I might have to try that. Looks like you still have the tabs at the top of the window too, not sure I'd like the visual clutter.


Not very user-friendly, but you can disable the horizontal tabs by editing userChrome.css in your profile directory: https://superuser.com/questions/1261660/firefox-quantum-ver-....


This is the up-to-date documentation for this:

Try adjusting browser.tabs.tabMinWidth in about:config.


You're a life saver, thank you!


Try out Brave. It's a faster, privacy-oriented browser with built-in ad-blocking.
