Firefox Adding a two-level tab stacks like in Vivaldi

[JamesJacques]

Hi,

I hope this is a good place for my idea. It would be great if Mozilla Team could add two-level tab stacks like in vivaldi. This is a great feature especially for Firefox users who have hundreds of tabs and would like to group them (work, music, projects). I've been using Firefox for years and I like how it's easy to have a lot of tabs and they don't shrink like in e.g. google chrome (terrible!).

I really miss this feature and I hope Mozilla Team will consider this idea and add it to the new version of Firefox.

I already abandoned firefox in favour of vivaldi, due to the missing feature from firefox

This is actually the only thing that keeps me away from coming back to firefox

Firefox needs this 100%. Firefox also needs the tiled windows built in. I'm near ready to move to Vivaldi. Only thing it doesn't have for me is the beautiful PIP windows that Firefox offers.

Tab Group/Stacking and Workspaces

Other browsers (Opera, Brave and Vivaldi) already have it. Nevermind about the overglorified SpyAdware a.k.a. Chrome.

Just make similar to how Vivaldi does it.

Tab Stacking for Mobile, and both features in the PC version.

@DG17 there are also threads for tab grouping and workspaces:

Native Tab Grouping / More Customizable Tab bar 

Workspaces à la Opera

Vivaldi's two-level tab stacks are the only thing keeping me tied to chromium for my personal browsing, and I would also very much appreciate for my work computer, where only a few pre-approved web browsers are allowed to be installed.

As others have said, make it default, make it optional, but put it as a feature!

Tab Stacks

Vivaldi has it and Firefox needs it. This is just a crazy good feature. Do it!

This is one of the super productivity features that Vivaldi has that does not allow me to switch to any other browser. I would love for Firefox to add this feature and other similar features present in Vivaldi like the workplaces feature.

Hi,

I am the author of this idea. When I posted this I was testing Vivaldi for a short while and I liked the idea of ​​two-level tabs. I have thousands of tabs so grouping them was a great idea for me. On another forum it was suggested to me to start using available extensions until this solution is implemented in firefox. Currently I am using Simple Tab Group and I think it is even better than the one in Vivaldi. We do not have two levels of tabs, so there are less graphics to distract us and take us away from the content of the websites we are using. I still think that the tab grouping solution should be implemented natively in firefox because the author of the extension may abandon the project or the firefox developers will change the extension system.

Currently I like the Simple Group Tab version more than the one in Vivaldi and I would like the firefox developers to implement something similar to it.

And you, which option do you prefer:

1. Two-level tabs like in Vivaldi

2. Grouping like in Simple Tab Group

3. Or maybe we should vote for both solutions to be implemented in Firefox so that we can choose the one that suits us better? Let me know what you think.

I also thank you for all the kudos that my idea received. I hope that the developers will add this functionality to the browser as soon as possible.
