I'm personally a heavy tab user but have always wondered why there is almost no support for tab grouping or customization in the native tab bar in Firefox.

I think making it able to group like Google Chrome does for example or at least giving more access for extensions and add-ons would significantly improve the UI in that regard.

GROUPING TABS IN THE BROWSER

I think firefox should group tabs.

it's sometimes difficult to track multiple tabs in which you are working on. Just look at chrome ( you can group tabs with colors) and save or hide them. )

i think firefox can do better! please bring this feature as soon as possible.

Enhancing Firefox for Desktop: Tab Grouping and TTS Improvements Needed

Firefox for desktop has some room for improvement. While it offers a simple UI, customization options, and better privacy than many browsers, it lacks essential features like tab grouping and built-in text-to-speech (TTS). However,however the Android app version of Firefox remains impressive.

Let’s hope Mozilla addresses these missing features soon!

@Kudo-Holmes thanks for the feedback!

Good news, tab grouping is currently in development - stay tuned here for more updates.

For TTS improvements, there is another thread here: Native and Comprehensive Text-to-Speech (TTS) 

Feel free to check it out and add any additional feedback 😃

@koko_villa your idea was merged into this similar thread - and wanted to share that our team is currently working on a tab grouping feature. We'll share more updates here as they are available 🙌

Group tab

I offer you the idea of ​​grouping tabs like in Chrome and Microsoft Edge, which will also distribute your tabs into groups using artificial intelligence, it’s very convenient and it’s sorely lacking here, there’s not even a normal extension for convenient grouping of tabs

I do not know if there are some requests and the developers are looking here for ideas and suggestions, but I would love if it will be possible to pause and release resourses from the groups that are innactive.

Yeah, can't wait to have this feature, finally. This is the only thing stopping me from switching definitely from Chrome.

  3. tab sleep like edge.

I am trying to switch default browsers from Chrome, but tab grouping was the very first thing I see that is lacking in Firefox. I know this feature hasn't been around for a super long time, but it is a huge benefit that makes me wonder why Edge and Chrome came out with this and Firefox is so far behind. If Firefox is going to be so far behind other browsers with major functionality improvements, it really doesn't seem worth it to switch browsers.

Funny thing is, Firefox was actually the first major browser to have this feature, YEARS ago --- then removed it. 

But at least now it's in the works and being added back in again. 
Brave is nice, but it's got some really annoying quirks.
