sidebar tabs are so great. more horizontal space for the title, reduces tons of whitespace in 99% of sites, hierarchical collapsing in many (ya like tab groups? tree-style-tabs users have had them for a decade already), and it's easy to make them use little vertical space.

it's such a no-brainer, I'm surprised it's not a first-class feature in the main browsers (I'm aware that it is built in or default in a number of niche browsers).

Its one of those things like dark mode, where power users strongly request it for decades, yet corporations push back against it every time. And much the same as dark mode, I predict that all the same corporations will suddenly have a change of heart the second Apple starts implementing it.


Edge has this implemented in a pretty decent way.


Brave as well.
