Native vertical tabs are already suggested here: https://github.com/WaterfoxCo/Waterfox/issues/3042

For now I suggest to use an extension for it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-tab . Actually this plugin is one of the of main reasons why I stay with a Firefox-based browsers.

I believe "split-screen" is not really related to vertical tabs and should be considered a separate feature.

As a remark, there used to be the Tile Tabs extension which allowed you to split the browser arbitrarily. I still miss that functionality from time to time and having such a feature back would be so neat. Also, I believe no other browser has such a feature, at least not as powerful and customizable as Tile Tabs allowed.
