I’m trying to switch to Floorp right now from Firefox, where I have both the regular horizontal tabs, and a flat vertical list with the Tree Style Tab extension. I use the later a lot, and while I could keep this setup in Floorp, I like that the vertical tabs can be native instead of using TST. However, it just feels weird to not have horizontal tabs. I think I might miss seeing a bunch of my tab titles at a glance with it, but I have to use it more and see how I feel.

I uses TST exclusively and have removed the horizontal tab bar. I’ve had it like that so long, I forgot how to get the tab bar back the other day when I needed to do some debugging on something. Definitely don’t miss it, and the structure of TST makes it effectively a massive organised bookmark tree.

i have the same setup, in ff i can manage a window with 200+ tabs* no problem.

in chrome i feel stupid after the third tab.

* i have “auto discard tabs” to keep the ram from exploding.

Last time I saved my tabs, there were 840 :). I have about 8 pinned so they always load on start but the rest are discarded. I’ve never had an issue with ram but I do have plenty. I probably use between 30-100 depending on the jobs for the day (I’m a full time developer).

There are instructions in the TST docs I think but a quick google turned this up too.
