      what a braindead take on many fronts. to start with, browsers have chrome that will take up space, especially if you use a vertical tab layout. Plus the UX can be made much simpler by including it in the browser.

        Yeah, managing windows is difficult. That’s why Windows users usually prefer to maximize everything, and the platform does not really prioritize drag and drop. Dragging and dropping between maximized windows? Cringe.

      That’s silly, there’s lots of stuff that a browser could do with split tabs that a window manager would not be responsible for supporting. Applying search to both tabs simultaneously, for example.

      Should Firefox get rid of tabs themselves? That could also be done by the window manager.
