#122Is there a way to migrate from tab groups implemented by an add-on?
In my case I have been using Simple Tab Groups (STG) for years. I want to copy my STG tab groups, import them into the native tab groups, test that out and decide if I like STG or the native functionality better.

#123Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'm not consistent about going back and closing tabs. By the time I've browsed on a couple topics, I have enough tabs open I can't see the titles any more, and it's downhill from there. Some of them, I think "this is good, I'll come back to this when I get a chance" so I don't want to mass-close them. Eventually I'm opening new tabs of tabs I already have open, because it's faster than finding the original. Every now…
Good lord! If you mass bookmark, aren't you just turning your bookmarks into your history? In that case why not just use browser history instead?
- History gets cleared sometimes. Bookmarks are (basically) forever.
- History includes tons of ephemeral shit, like search result pages (useless, will be different the next time you load it) and redirect pages, or things I've actively decided not to care about. If I looked at 20 shirts on a store-site but only had 3 still open, odds are good I already firmly rejected the other 17. Straight history loses the information of which ones I cared about the most.

#124about:config and then set browser.tabs.groups.enabled I'm really puzzled by the UI, you have to drag and drop a tab onto another to create a tab group. This really sucks because now when you want to move a tab you have to be pixel and timing exact to not create a tab group. Most of the time when moving a tab I end up creating a tab group then having to right click and then "ungroup tab" Also you cannot move tab group…
>I'm really puzzled by the UI, you have to drag and drop a tab onto another to create a tab group.
You can also use Right Click->Add Tab To Group
This is what I use as the pull tabs together is very bad UI. It's to easy to move the tab instead and / or open a new window. Hope this improves with time.

#125Is there a way to hide the colored tab group buttons so they can only be seen in the List-all-tabs drop-down?
You can Right Click->Save and Close Group. Though it will reopen if you select it from the dropdown.

#126For some reason I had thought this was already implemented and I just wasn't using it because I don't have a lot of tabs open. It appears I was mistaken. Nice to see this implemented in Firefox.
It was an existing feature, then it got moved to an extension, then they broke the extension. And then, much later, they implemented it again.

#127I've not changed anything on my home setup yet, but I've been experimenting with vertical tabs and tabs groups for the past week or so. I'm not sure if vertical tabs are doing me any good, but I think Tab Groups have really been aiding my productivity. I have so many tasks I'm working on in a given day, constantly jumping between specific instances of the same site over and over. For example, on any given ticket I'm…
Saved groups are shown in the List all Tabs menu (the button on the right of tab bar)

Re: Firefox tab groups are here
#129I know this sounds crazy, but has any browser just tried implementing two (or more) horizontal rows of tabs? - the user can decide to put them up the top or on the second row based on their own prioritising. Or just zip them up. Not saying it’s a great idea but these kind of horizontal chrome groups never worked for me, and Arc tabs are too vertical for me.

#130Wikipedia has an entire, rather amusing, section on the dangers of tab hoarding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_(interface)#Tab_hoarding
That's hilarious.
> Tab hoarding can lead to stress and information overload, distraction, and reduced computer performance. It can develop into emotional attachment to the set of open tabs, including fear of losing them upon a crash or other reboot, and conversely, relief when tabs are properly restored. Tab hoarders have attributed the behavior to anxiety, fear of missing out, procrastination, and poor personal information management practices.
