Hi Since fifteen years ago when i started to use Opera browser it's possible to minimize tabs by clicking on the currently selected tab. Firefox browser never had this feature and it's one of reasons i'm still not using it as a main browser. Do you plan to include this feature in future releases or is there some addon providing this feature? I found a question on this in mozzilazine forum which is 7 years old (http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=630332&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a) and since then no improvement in this. I think i'm not the only one to welcome this feature. Thanks

hello s3v3ran, this is a primarily community-run support forum so it's probably not the right place to request features (we cannot implement any features & devs won't read here).

please either use https://input.mozilla.org/feedback for general feedback or if you feel that it's a missing feature in the browser file a bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org.

You can check on the Add-ons website if you can find an extension that provides such a feature.
