It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware.

Given Google's overwhelming presence in the browser market, this is unconscionable. We should all despise the ad-tech business, and have no sympathy for the companies getting whacked by Google's actions. But we should not permit one monopolist to replace them all. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/12/year-review-googles-corporate-paternalism-browser

    While you’re not wrong, I was hoping for some recommendations as I’ve not found any plugins that make grouped tabs easy to use.

      Try using Sidebery, you can have panels, groups, containers, and snapshots in vertical tab tree style.

        I use this setup myself. It is like Edge’s vertical tabs which I loved.

      I use Simple Tab Groups, it’s great!

        I’ve also recently started using this extension, and it’s incredible by comparison. Despite the name being “Simple”, it feels way more advanced than Chrome’s half-hearted attempt at tab groups.

      This is the same issue I have. It’s too different and clunky to me and every time I try it I have to switch back.

        I want out. What’s the opinion on Chromium?
