1 year ago While what you describe is correct, technically speaking, VTR is not hiding any entries, it is implementing a completely new context menu, because it wasn't possible at the time to use a native Firefox context menu.
This will be eventually solved by #205
Add-on version: 0.13.1 Firefox version: 109 (64 bit) OS + OS-Version: Manjaro Linux 22.0.0 Sikaris Other tab + user interface related add-ons:
(I also have the horizontal tab bar hidden via a custom Firefox stylesheet.)
I like Vertical Tabs Reloaded but I disabled it because I cannot access the UnloadTabs context menu when using it, and I use the "unload other tabs" context menu entry often.
It also hides the context menu entries or the Simple Tab Groups extension, so I cannot right-click on a tab and send it to another tab group.
I tried using the Vertical Tabs extension instead, as it does not hide UnloadTabs context menu entries when right-clicking (secondary-clicking) on individual tabs. Unfortunately, Vertical Tabs seems slower than Vertical Tabs Reloaded, and I'm pretty sure a couple of months ago I stopped using Vertical Tabs because it seemed to make me lose a lot of tabs in multiple tab groups (as grouped by the Simple Tab Groups extension). Moreover, now Vertical Tabs seems to be unmaintained.
Vertical Tabs Reloaded would be my ideal implementation of a vertical tab extension if I could access the UnloadTabs menu, and never lose any of my tab groups. I also tried using Tree Style Tab, which didn't seem to corrupt my tab groups, nor hide the UnloadTabs context menu. However I don't want my tabs in trees, I just don't like that behavior. I want new tabs to just go right next to the tab I am currently in, and I don't want trees being collapsed, particularly if I am unaware of it. Additionally, Sidebery is trying to be too many things, all I want is a vertical tab extension, not something also combining, e.g., the bookmarks menu.
