Firefox

"You asked, we built it" --> "People keep shitting on us for our terrible decisions... Quick let's do something people actually want to compensate ! Wait let's also slap AI on it, I'm sure everyone will love that" (Mozilla being Mozilla I guess...)

So uhh, when are you introducing PWAs and easier profile management?

Not something I'll ever use, but cool regardless

Hoping someone might be able to help me out with this info, I've tried looking and can't find a solid answer.

When you use the "Save and close group" feature of tab groups, do they

1. Stay forever, no matter if you close Firefox, restart your pc, not used that group in months etc.

2. Allow an unlimited, or at least a high number, of saved and closed tab groups.

I mainly ask because it specifically puts closed and saved tab groups in a section called "recent tab groups" which sounds suspiciously temporary.

Noooo it has AI garbage, what the hell.

I really need this feature, I have over 500 tabs open right now, I just hope it works well.

Me using the Tiled Tab groups add-on for 2 years now... Good-morning

This is mostly useless to me; I already enforce all tabs into unique containers to isolate browsing and website contexts from one another; while still allowing me to make exceptions to the rule and "unbreak" things if that's causing an issue, but still keeping things isolated from the rest of the browsing.

As for Tab Management; I use two windows and a plugin; Tab Stash Plus; which collapses tabs I stash into a bookmark.

Every so often when I reach a critical mass of tabs I personally go through them and play "Keep/Toss" with more odds on Toss. Only useful tabs get stashed and are then searchable from the plugin.

In general; since this feature now presents a possibility of an extremely UNWANTED AI integration I will be setting the config to off and leaving it off...using a relevant config policy tool or plugin to enforce this to off if needed. I hate AI features that I didn't ask for and this one definitely doesn't seem like it's going to be helpful nor compatible with my current workflow.

Awesome!

Can you now please make it so that of I have over 100 tabs open that Firefox makes my computer die, even if all those tabs are all pre-killed by a tab closer?

ok, mozilla is at least doing stuff we want along with ai garbage now.

Shit, I remember seeing requests for tab groups for like 20 years under an assortment of names and descriptions. Neat to see. Useless for me, but neat to see.

I had to enable them: about:config -> browser.tabs.groups.enabled -> true

smart tab groups, a new AI-powered feature that suggests names and groups based on the tabs you have open.

Yeah sure ok. Did the community ask for this too?

So they're reintroducing a feature in 2025 that they added to Firefox in 2010 and subsequently removed in 2013. Such progress. Much wow.

Now, the team is experimenting with smart tab groups, a new AI-powered feature that suggests names and groups based on the tabs you have open.

Off course, they found a way to integrate more Ai features.

I feel like this feature is a good idea that has come too late for me. I already "group" stuff via windows. That'll be a hard habit to break.

Was I signed up for some beta? I've had firefox groups for a few weeks now.

And holy shit do I need em.

Please help me understand how to use tab groups and how to use bookmarks and why they are different things.
