When I right click on a tab in Firefox, I can reopen it in a container. The containers (at first glance) seem to be limited to Personal, Work, Banking, Shopping, and Facebook (which is probably there because I have Facebook container installed). In settings I can modify the container tabs available. (And turn the feature on or off, but it's already on because of Facebook container.)

Is that what that is? It looks a lot like the example you linked. Firefox 123.0, but it's been there for quite a while.

    Not really, though the functionalities are adjacent and I could see how one would make that mistake. I do indeed use container tabs, and they're a killer feature.

    Tab groups are merely organizational, allowing you to reference, store, close, and save groups of tabs en masse; by contrast, container tabs don't do ANY organization at all; you can't group them all together, move them all to a new window as one, bookmark them all, close them all, etc.

    Interesting, thanks. Seems like the containers could be expanded into the tab group functionality without too much trouble.
