Vertical tabs provided by Tree Style Tabs is a wonderful idea. Despite Mozilla's rush to Quantum, at least Piror has provided a version that works (after a fashion) with FF Quantum
CONS--
1. Many of us who use Tree Style Tabs regularly have a great need for its companion extension, "Open Link in New (Tree Style) Tab". OLNT is available for pre-Quantum FF, and works fine, but is not available (yet?) for Quantum.
2. Under pre-Quantum FF, we could create a bookmark of all open TST tabs. Under Quantum, however, we are told Quantum has a bug which prevents our creating a bookmark without prior FF permissions, and are told to use the TST toolbar button to grant ourselves permission to create bookmarks. However, the toolbar button has no explicit control to grant permission, so we still cannot create a FF bookmark of TST vertical tabs.
3. Many of us expected that when we installed the Quantum version of TST, the top-most, horizontal tab bar would disappear, as it always did in pre-Quantum FF. But no-- the horizontal tab bar remains, for some inexplicable reason.

- Rated 5 out of 5by MicahStone, a month agoCan this extension be used to capture information about a FF tab that somehow opens then closes within a second? If so, what settings of this extension will enable this?...I haven't been able to find the correct setting to capture this info.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Odnankenobi, a month agoThis extension revolutionized my browser experience. I can work and search much, much better now.
Gonna test this with vertical tabs on the browser soon to see how it goes - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19291583, a month agoNot able to group tabs by domain or regular expression.

- Rated 1 out of 5by algreenpanda, a month agoGreat idea, decent execution. And for some reason there's an option for "AI Chatbot". I'm very tired of LLM's being jammed in everywhere they can possibly fit. Whether you are fundamentally for or against AI, this is a wasteful and useless implementation.

- Rated 5 out of 5by talentix, 2 months agoThank you Piro for creating and maintaining this FF extension. It is one of my most importand FF extensions!
I have tried many Vertical Tab extensions. TST is by far the most useful, stable and trustworthy. It has earned its Firefox recommendation by its superiority in all aspects. I also have tried the internal vertical tab view of Firefox. But it is almost not configurable.
