  • Sidebery – A Firefox extension for managing tabs and bookmarks in sidebar
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Jul 2023
    I was really enjoying tree tabs and panels of the Arc browser [0] but decided to rollback to firefox so I could have something cross platform. Sidebery lets me do nested tab groups, tab panels, plus its got my bookmarks as a panel too. Performance so far is really good, with ~50 tabs anyway.

    Only trouble is I had to go to relatively great lengths to hide my horizontal tabs: enable userChrome stylesheets, go to about:support to find my Profile folder, create a chrome folder, create a userChrome.css file and paste contents from [1], and restart. So now I have only the side bar of tree tabs, and a hot key to hide/show. Screencap attached [2]

  • Firefox has surpassed Chrome on Speedometer
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Jul 2023
    Out of the box Tree Style Tabs is not very good, due to decisions made by Firefox that are beyond its control.

    Enabling the desires behavior likely requires quite a few steps beyond just installing the extension.

    https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/wiki/Code-snippets-fo...

    Originally, Firefox had a dropdown menu that allowed the user to choose whether tabs were on the top, bottom, left, or right.

    This has been an annoying trend with Firefox for some time. They take the default, expected functionality, marginalize it while saying "Users who prefer the old way can enable it in a setting / extension" and then the setting gets deprecated or the extension gets broken by Firefox.

  • Brave Browser introduces vertical tabs
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Jun 2023
    I don't really think anyone is copying anyone here. This is a popular feature for browsers that has been around for over a decade.

    Orion[1] is another recent MacOS browser that released before Arc in 2021 and has vertical tabs. Edge had vertical tabs as an experiment back in 2020[2] and is full feature now. Vivaldi has had vertical tabs since 2015[3]. It might not count since it's not built in, but Firefox has had vertical tab extensions since 2007[4].
