@MsDropbear42 my  has just had its first update for today, & there is still NO #splitview available. i now begin to suspect the article might have been bullshit blarted out by an ai hallucination.

for many months i've monitored

& neither shows any interesting new updates that would confirm #FirefoxNightly has now received this important long-overdue feature.

i feel very disappointed.

Split-screen/Tab-in-Tab feature (view more than one tab at once)

Currently I'm doing research on a heap of products, and collating into an online spreadsheet. I'm wearing out the Ctrl+Tab keys flicking back and forth, copying/pasting etc!

@MsDropbear42 @firefoxnightly well, yep it works, but ofc there's "buts"...

  • as expected unfortunately, tis less powerful than vivaldi's & zen's, in that it only supports two tabs... but for those said two, it is very nice, except...
  • quite the shock to me, if one or both of the tabs is pinned, the feature becomes inactive, ie, atm anyway, the two target tabs must both be "normal", ie, unpinned. sigh. also...
  • atm there's no keyboard shortcut for it, only the tab context-menu, meaning if i want to avail myself right now of this long-desired feature, i have to use my "Native Tabs"  #profile, not my preferred "TreeStyleTab" profile, with all the feature-loss that entails.

Still, tis a welcome start. Ta Devs.
