Thousands of users wanted it, so Firefox delivered it. Tab Groups are now live to help you declutter and stay organized while browsing.
As a librewolf babe, I’m keeping an eye on this: https://codeberg.org/librewolf/issues/issues/2458
Tab grouping is so useful and something I’ve always had to resort to extensions for. Good for Firefox for this, can’t wait for it to make its way to a browser that doesn’t sell users data.
Hey, you can use tab grouping in Librewolf if you set
browser.tabs.groups.enabledto true in about:configBy now you would’ve expected someone to have pointed out what code is actually collecting that data that’s supposedly sold.
I’m glad they’ve added it to desktop, but based on my usage it’s more important for me on mobile. Hopefully they bring it to Android soon.
A million times this. But now the backend is done, hopefully mobile isn’t that far off.
Agreed. But I’m glad it’s native to desktop Firefox now. Grouping tabs in desktop works for me to hide the hundreds of tabs I keep to tens of groups 🤪
Amg I couldn’t figure out how to collapse. I’m so happy rn. I’ve been containerising everything. It’s so soothing.
Mh, I’ll check out how it works but if I don’t like it I can always stick with
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/
(And obviously 👎 for the inclusion of useless AI bs, would be nice if you can turn that off?)
The AI is local, privacy respecting and optional to use, but I agree a config option to hide the button would be nice
You can disable it in about:config
I’m not sure which button you’re talking about, but if it’s the one in the sidebar, click “Customise sidebar”, and then uncheck “AI chatbot”.
So after I save and close a group… where do I find it?
It’s in the tab overview menu https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-overview-menu
Thanks!
The lack of groups was the deal breaker for me, so after it rolled out to beta, I finally switched back to Firefox as my primary browser.
Last I tried, I don’t think you could reorder or drag/drop groups and selecting multiple tabs doesn’t result in “group tabs” in the context menu, but it is still decent enough.
Tab groups have always been there. They’re called windows.
Yeah, no. I’m not trying to keep track of 15 windows when I can make named groups to actually organize the various things I always end up coming back to
Not on mobile
Thank christ
why “thank christ”? Was Christ advocating for tab groups?
What, you don’t remember that part of the Bible?
Mozilla 11:28 - “Come to me, all of you who have 87 tabs open, and I will give you grouping.”
“Let he who is without tab, cast the last grouping”
PRAISE BE
Only 87? Those are rookie numbers
It’s just an expression to express how great something is. It’s not an actual attempt to thank Jesus Christ for this.
Don’t tell me you’re one of those people who makes a scene when someone says “god bless you” too
Might switch back, use vivaldi for workspaces, I switched because it synced across devices but I never use that feature I just end up retyping everything if I need to open something.
This is super neat, but I swapped to Floorp awhile back because I like the workspaces feature.
Super happy for folks who wanted this built-in tho.
Nice :)
Go fuck yourself
“Lastly, curious power users can flip the browser.tabs.smartGroups preference in Nightly to preview on-device AI grouping—just remember the prototype tag means rough edges are part of the deal.”
The prototype scans open tabs locally, suggests topical names, and auto-bundles related pages. Because all processing happens on the user’s computer, the company says, neither raw content nor behavioral signals are uploaded to the cloud.
“AI” is just a buzzword, this isn’t chatbot nonsense as far as I can tell.
If its called smart and uses Ai, then its advanced. We need Ai for renaming groups of tabs.
