Is it possible to have tabs shared across windows

I primarily work on a multi monitor machine where it is helpful to have multiple websites open side by side on different monitors. This causes me problems though with managing tabs across different windows. With Tree Style tabs I am reasonably comfortable having all my tabs in the same window. I was hoping there'd be some way to have multiple windows share the same tabs(and hopefully tree tabs structure). Is anything like this possible? If not what might be some other ways to help manage multiple browser instances?

I saw https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ which looked like it might help, but it isn't supported anymore.

Yes it is and no idea. It will take time for others to catch-up and make new or finish coding old. Old being updated : Tracking them here: http://bit.ly/2j0Anlj

A google doc doing the same thing https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TFcEXMcKrwoIAECIVyBU0GPoSmRqZ7A0VBvqeKYVSww/edit#gid=0

I checked alternativeto.net and nothing.

Should google some more I guess.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

How do I share them across windows then without having to manually move them back and forward each time?

And I would know, this why ?

Sorry I took your answer as implying that you did. That's mainly what I'm looking for. Other options to better manage multiple windows would also be appreciated
