Feature request: TAB SWITCHER AND TAB SORTER AND DEV CONSOLE #18672

Closed tathastu871 closed 5 days ago

Description

TAB SORTER:-

SUPPOSE I HAVE 500 TABS OPENED. I AM CURRENTLY VIEWING 200TH TAB AND SUDEENLY I WANT TO SEARCH SOMETHING I OPEN NEW TAB AND SEARCH. NOW I WANT TO GO BACK TO 200TH TAB. CURRENTLY WE HAVE TO SCROLL BACK 300 TAB TO GO BACK TO 200TH TAB.

BUT IF WE CAN LONG CLICK TAB AND DRAG IT TO SORT TO CHANGE OR REAARANGE TABS I CAN TAKE 200TH TAB TO 500TH POSITION JUST AFTER NEW TAB SO I CAN EASILY SWITCH BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN NEW TAB AND PREVIOUS TAB

See what i am trying to say is above "drag and sort is available in group tab options " but in group tab menu tabs are not properly viewable we cannoy see whats there in that tab and whats the actual name of site or url is not seen properly.

IF SUCH SORTING FEATURE IS AVAILBALE IN NORMAL TAB SWITCHER THEN IT WOULD BE GREAT.

NOTE: IF ABOVE FEATURE CAN'T BE ADDED THEN AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO ABOVE FEATURE. OPEN NEW TAB JUST NEXT TO CURRENT TAB. SOMETIMES NEWLY OPENED TABS ARE AT BOTTOM AN WE HAVE TO SCROLL BACK 100s of tab to go to previous tab

TAB SWITCHER:-

Kiwi browser android has amazing settings for tab switcher Screenshot_20211010-084256_Kiwi Browser Screenshot_20211010-092851_Kiwi Browser Screenshot_20211010-092807_Kiwi Browser

TAB GROUPING:-(VERTICAL): CURRENTLY BRAVE HAS HORIZONTAL TAB GROUPING AS IN CHROMIUM.

IF POSSIBLE ADD VERTICAL TAB GROUPING: ALSO VERTICAL TAB SWITCHER SUPPORTS GROUPING TABS. UNIKE BRAVE WHICH ONLY SUPPORTS GROUPING IN HORIZINTAL TABS. 20211014_162859

See if tab grouping is possible in above type of tab switcher than it would be good

DEVELOPER TOOLS:-

ALSO KIWI HAS BUILT IN DEVELOPER TOOLS CONSOLE NETWORK TRAFFIC LOGGER and kiwi now uses latest chromium

Current Tab switcher has much graphical elements and uses a lot of cpu and gpu thereby crashing or logging the brave. However if it has list view of tabs it will be much much faster to switch between tabs and less cpu usage

Below are 2 altenatives to current tab switcher in order to make brave faster and less cpu and no gpu usage:

1) Vertical TabList Swipe:

2) Tab List View

See in above video its blazing fast to switch tabs when in Vertical Tab swipe mode or List view mode. While in brave it uses a lot of gpu and cpu and when number of tabs exceed 100 or more it just lagssss.

See above all features that i have mentioned are present in other android browsers which are also based on chromium engine which have ad and tracker blocking features like that of brave plus features that brave dont have like extension support and all necessary basic browser functionality and are blazingly faster than brave

Also in Group Tab View add Select All Tab Option to select all tabs at once and group them.

Also in In Tab Switcher add option to search tabs
