  This is the most stable option for sure. The more popular Tree Style Tab is still rather buggy, even after its complete rewrite.

Tree Style Tabs is a popular one. Though none can take away the Tabs in title bar without manually installed CSS hacks.

  It’s only a few lines of code, though.

    Not a big problem for technical users, but it's enough to dissuade many non-technical users. With vertical tabs being such a second class feature in this and other ways, consumers have not been given a fair opportunity to try both schemes and decide for themselves which they prefer. Thus the tyranny of horizontal tabs is perpetuated.

    Rather than simply disabling the tabs, I find it useful to conditionally disable them: ``` #main-window:not([customizing]):not([tabsintitlebar="true"]) #toolbar-menubar[inactive="true"] + #TabsToolbar { visibility: collapse !important; } ``` This snippet shows tabs when in "customize" mode, so you can access elements from addons placed on the tab bar by default. It also shows tabs when the menubar is showing: tap alt to peek, enable menubar to have vanilla access to tabs again. Finally, if you use the setting "tabs in titlebar", tabs are not disabled. Doing it this way enforces sensible behavior and gives you escape hatches that don't require editing CSS and restarting the browser.

      HN doesn't do markdown, to get code text indent by 4 spaces. My userChrome.css looks like this https://github.com/dngray/ghacks-user.js/tree/fx-desktop#userchrome-options https://github.com/dngray/ghacks-user.js/tree/fx-desktop#use... @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* Remove default items from the urlbar-container */ #back-button, #forward-button, #stop-reload-button, #reload-button, #customizableui-special-spring1, #home-button, #customizableui-special-spring2, #library-button, #sidebar-button { display:none; } /* Disable Tab toolbar for Tree Style Tab */ #tabbrowser-tabs { visibility: collapse !important; } #sidebar-header { display: none; } I use the hotkeys or buttons on my mouse so I removed all the buttons from the toolbar https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly#w_navigation https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perf...

Tree Style Tab is another option, allowing vertical tabs with nested hierarchy: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-tab/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-ta... As someone that likes to use open tabs as a sort of todo list, I can't live without that extension. Allows me to keep different trees open for various purposes: PRs in one tree, Issues in another, academic/scientific paper to-read list, forum posts, etc
