OmniWeb was great! I think Opera still did it first, though.
I moved on to Safari after it died, but I missed vertical tabs dearly and still do. Hopefully this idea catches on well enough for the Safari team to finally steal it.
- nomel 3y agoYes, I remember Opera having it around that same time, and Firefox having a plugin to copy it. I think the Firefox plugin had full "tab tree" support though. I believe it died after one of the many updates that changed how plugins worked, although I haven't checked in a couple of decades to see if something similar has appeared.
- niutech 3y agoYou can still have tab tree in Firefox using Tree Style Tab (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-tab/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-ta...)
- sundarurfriend 3y agoOpera was the Xerox PARC of web browsers in a lot of ways.
- arp242 3y agoExcept that you could actually use it instead of being a legendary project we only heard about but very few people actually used. That makes it all the more painful that it was taken away.
- weikju 3y agoVertical tabs are already a thing in Safari with tabgroups although it doesn’t completely remove the horizontal tabs
- apple4ever 3y agoSame here. I loved OW and its Tab layout. But after its demise I went to Safari.
