I personally don't see a value until we can get rid of the title bar and gain some vertical space.
I say this as a sane person who maintains under 10 tabs at all times but I do acknowledge that most of you are lunatics when it comes to browser tabs.
- Checking in with > 200 tabs in sideberry
  
  On my desktop I've currently got 4 windows with 101, 103, 17, and 191 tabs. Think it's about 60 on my phone, and currently only about 30 on my tablet.
  
  Team Panorama nods politely in your direction.
  
  I close all my tabs many times a day. Probably would be about 50-150+ a day if I didn't tho lol
- Mozilla have confirmed that is in their plans
- You can hide it via css
Can anybody post some pictures?
- Looks like this, but its subject to change
  
  Is there an option to expand the vertical tabs so that they say the page title?
  
  Is that Gnome with a DK/SE/NO locale?
  
  I think it looks elegant. Nice. I will keep using CTRL + [insert number here], though.
- It's native and in work, I hope they will do something like sidetabs (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sidetabs/)
OMG finally! Now I don't need a bunch of addons that always break to do this!!
I think the ultimate form of Firefox vertical tabs is sideberry
when they natively have all or most of the features that sideberry has, they would have mastered it
- Sideberry really is amazing. So good I could never switch to another browser if it meant abandoning it.
  
  it enables me leaving open a billion tabs because they're so easy to switch between and organise with it 😭😭😭
- Never see anything on this one I think... Or don't remember. I was using sidetabs.
  
  highly recommend checking it out! it's very feature rich!
hard to say which tab is active
- It's that one
- Centering also doesn't look great
unfortunately it doesn't expand the tab names on hover; I find something like this more useful:

Sorry, but I already super enjoy tree style tabs, even though it was kind of a mess to configure
- The addon Tree style tabs itself shouldn't have been the problem, or was it? It's hiding the default tabs what's not a smooth process for me.
  
  I don't see the difference
Finally. I've been so excited for this. I have managed to never try any of the extensions so I won't be disappointed lol.
Just got rid of samsungs version on my phone, aint even gonna dick around with that one
Make it look and feel like Arc browser and I'll gladly switch.
