FF: 124.0.2: Grouping of Tabs

Hail all:

OS: W11Ent_x64 V: 22h2 (b: 22621.3447) FF: 124.0.2 x_64 I tried several "Group Tabs" add-ons, like: Simple Tab Groups. Tab Group. And I few I can't even recall the name from. Yet, none works. Not ONE.

Now, I use Edge as well, on my corporate system that I got from work. Personal PC I use FF on.

But, the Edge Tab Grouping, which allows tabs to be "put to Eco-Sleep", while hidden the open tabs by clicking the Group-Tab Icon, is a feature I sorely miss in Firefox.

Odd, as, so many requested this feature, how come it has not been implemented over the many years of people asking?

Either way: Does anyone know a good, WORKING add-on that does the "Edge Thing" with FF tabs, please? Since, I often got like 200 tabs open, which is a real misery without Tab Grouping and "Hiding".

Thank you aforehand: Ke'Ylan.

This is more of a feature request. I use these features everyday at work in Chrome. You post this question here. ---> https://connect.mozilla.org/

Can you be more specific about what is not working with extensions like Simple Tab Groups?

Thank you for replying, sir.

I installed it, it's "Operational", no errors ... but I just cannot get my tabs to group, let alone "melt them together" under the group?

Hope this makes sense. Haven't slept in 3 days.  :S For which I apologise.

Developers are working on inbuilt tab groups. Meanwhile everything's OK with Simple Tabs Groups.

Yeah, Firefox had it sometime ago, but it went poof.

Extensions can't alter the tab bar interface, but they can effectively create groups by hiding and showing tabs. The sidebar interface allows full grouping capabilities.
