collapsible pinned tabs space

[WillR]

I would like to see pinned tabs be collapsible.

I choose to have a bunch of pinned tabs and when my browser is half screen width I can only see 2 tabs because of how much real estate my pinned tabs take up.

Collapsing pinned tabs missing feature

Hey there Team thanks for all the efforts to deliver us a great browser we all come to love! Now i do alot of R&D and so i ten to have lot of tabs and then i have to pin others and well as in now my pin section takes up more than half of my laptops screen and it be nice if i can have the pin section collapse on to the side of the browser so that i can have more of that footprint of the other tabs that aren't pinned.

idk just a thought thank you!

Collapse / Compact all pinned tabs in window into the UI space of 1 pinned tab

(See screenshot)

Currently every pinned tab takes a small space but if there's many of them they take the space of at least two full tabs. This is not a problem per se with the window maximized; but if you snap Firefox to either side of the screen then there's no option to have them take less space as they keep on the forefront priority of the UI and then the not-pinned tabs appear to the back of them keeping the user from navigate them comfortably.

(See screenshot)

Could we please have an option to compact them or dock them to the space of one pinned tab or at least a small bar like the tab list button has?

Thanks

Could we add the option to move the pinned tabs onto the brand-new sidebar?

I mean:

That way the whole horizontal tab bar gets freed for normal tabs and the pinned tabs can be added as wanted.

Of course, we should be able to choose which pinned tabs to add and in which order, feature currently unavailable with the current Firefox tools.

In vertical tabs setting, I think pinned tabs should be at the top of the window, keeping normal tabs at the left.
