Safari is doing this great with profiles and tab groups. The profiles help you have multiple workspaces where different sessions are start so you don’t have to sign out and sign in for different accounts all the time. And every profile has a tab group which is a collection of tabs. All that synced across all of your iDevices.
However tab groups have a bug that hasn’t been fixed since almost 2 years now: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/436025/safari-keeps-closing-newly-opened-tabs-re-opening-the-tabs-that-i-just-closed-o/444083?noredirect=1#comment687887_444083 https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/436025/safari-keep...
- blauditore 3y agoLiterally the same exists in Chrome, under the same feature names even (not sure who copied whom). Firefox has environment tabs, which are like profiles, but on a per-tab basis. Personally I'd like to have a combo of this and tab groups.
- mrtksn 3y agoWell, in Safari it’s a combo. Each profile has tab groups.
- blauditore 3y agoIn Chrome too, but that's not what I meant. What I want is tab environments (as in FF), combined with tab groups.
- wintermutestwin 3y agoSafari is useless for any workflow that requires >12 tabs because it lacks a vertical tabs solution.
- davejk 3y agoIt has vertical tabs in the sidebar on desktop, and a (searchable) grid view on both desktop and iOS.
- wintermutestwin 3y agoYou are right - but I don't count their implementation because it is incredibly lacking in basic functionality. Notice how the vertical "tabs" don't have a close X and the annoying padding that cuts off the tab name to replace it with "... " Also, every time I open Safari, I have to manually click the ... and "Show tabs on sidebar" - for each tab group! This is a total half assed implementation - I seriously doubt there are many who will use it in its current form.
