If you really want to use a chromium-based browser, Vivaldi does all this and for free. It's not bad, definitely a bit faster than firefox but that's the nature of the beast for the web these days. I also like having my tabs on the side rather than the top. I think you can do that with Firefox via an extension, I'll have to play around. But I much prefer using Firefox in my daily life
Vertical tabs is a built in function of FF. I think you just right click on a tab and there's an option on the context menu to switch maybe?
Only since like last year, so it's not a huge surprise someone would be unaware.
I wasn't trying to belligerent, just informative. I might even be wrong, just riffing from memory.
Oh no, I didn't take it that way. In fact your first sentence could very well be my reply back to you!
Vivaldi's ad blocking is far worse. I'm not sure how they built it, but even after you disable the whitelists for their paying partners, it misses things Brave and uBO on Firefox don't.
Vivaldi still supports Manifest V2, doesn't it? So you should be able to put UBO on it as well.
While I'm not 100% sure about UBO, I've been happily running Ad-Nauseam (based on UBO) on Vivaldi since the Manifest V2 troubles. It does require jumping through a minor hoop, but if you're tech savvy enough to use adblock, it won't present you any trouble or take much time at all.
