        There are some addons that do that. That’s the good thing about Firefox. Very customisable.

          Really, for mobile? Because containers aren’t available for Android.

        ffupdater gives you access to cool chrome forks, I assume at least one of them will continue to support uBlock Origin going forward.

              Yes, yes, and yes.😅 There is no tab management besides the ability to move them around on the tab UI page. No grouping, no labeling. I open a LOT of tabs. It’s really been hampering my ff experience. I’ll have to think about Firefox nightly and see how much of a hassle it’ll be.
