@mattbizio What I'm not convinced is that people needs to have several tabs opened all the time.
I know and agree that tabs management is important.

@leocg for me personally its only for ui aesthetic that i prefer. I like having vertical tabs cause its look prettier. Less stuff on upper part (horizontal tabs). Especially when the vertical tabs can auto hide. Its very neat. Also im easily bored. So a change will be nice.

@leocg So for work or just daily use you only use a single tab at a time? When your done you just close the tab and re sign in everytime?
For my use case I'm a sysadmin so it's not uncommon to have 20 - 30 portals open and going in and out of. Rmm tools, network management, inventory systems, device management systems and list goes on. As an admin I work on requests as they come in so I never know what portal I'll need till I physically get the request. All these are 2fa as well. Once you close the tab you have to 2fa back in. I couldn't imagine having to sign back in 100+ times a day using my password and 2fa code whereas I could just leave the tab open and refer back to it when needed.

@scrapefour Nope, I use more than one tab. I just don't use dozen, hundreds of tabs like some people do.

Yes plz make vertical tabs, almost all major browser got them as an option. Almost all sites are optimized for phones and content is dense in the midlle of the page, so vertical tabs uses vertical side space that is usualy empty and gives more real estate to the site content.

@leocg To me vertical tabs are the better option because I need more vertical screen real-estate than horizontal. Most websites waste a lot of horizontal real-estate, and having a minimized vertical bar is better because I can free up significant space on the top of the screen and the screen feel clutter free. Specifically Edge, has exactly what I need, but I am sticking to opera because of the other experiences.
Vertical tabs is just a quality of life change which will greatly improve UI of Opera!

For me Zen Browser has the best layout:
- Nothing on top and on bottom of the page
- Sidebar
- Zone 1: Address bar
- Zone 2: Bookmarks like button for the always in use sites
- Zone 3: Pinned tabs
- Zone 4: Opened Tabs
- bottom: workspace selector
With this layout the usable page height is maximized
