Tab groups is the biggest thing I’m missing after I made the switch the other week. I’m used to having loads of tabs open, so not being able to easily minimize the ones I’m currently using is annoying to say the least.

One plus is containers. Only opening Meta sites in their own container, same with Google/Youtube is pretty neat.

time to return using bookmarks, at least those can be categorized much better

Oh I hate bookmarks for that purpose, I already have too many as is. Found a way to make the tabs even smaller though, so not having a scroll bar for them will be very nice!

Tab groups and container tabs are the two things I want. Tab groups I’m missing a lot. The extension is not available on mobile.

Remembered one more thing; in Firefox I can only have 31 tabs open before the scroll bar appears. In Chrome it’s closer to 90-100! That’s kinda huge imo.

If you go to the about:config page you can edit browser.tabs.tabMinWidth down to 50 (default is 76) which lets you fit a bit more
If you want more than that it’s possible by editing the userchrome:

Modifying userchrome is admittedly difficult if you’re not a developer… but not out of reach if you’re able to follow a guide.
