Hi, im wondering on how do you disable and remove left and right tab scrolling?

i went to about:config. i thought setting it to 0 and disabling tab manager would do it. but not.

what other ways to make tab scrolling easy? is there an extension that do that?

what about a sidebar like brave? is there an addon for that?

Do you mean that the tabs should shrink to provide enough space to make them fit instead of showing scroll icons ?

There is browser.tabs.tabMinWidth on the about:config page to control the minimum tab width. Note that you can't go below 50.

You can also pin tabs to make fit even more.
