From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Here I'm still waiting for an official vertical tabs feature.

In the meantime, Floorp has it built-in to the browser.

@SeekPie @Olifant that's the whole reason I use it

I was aware of Floorp and had no particular interest in trying it until now. On my way to install it now!

Last time I looked at Floorp was when it was first announced and it seemed to just be hardened Firefox, similar to Librewolf. It's gained a ton of features since then!

I think it has better customization than librewolf and (beta iirc) integration with tree style tabs and vertical tabs. Although I haven't used it for long (2-3 months) the experience has been great. It has been my recommendation for anyone coming from Chrome.
