Tab stacking, tiling and tab grouping

Hi, I usually have many tabs open, around 10-15, and mess up with them. Most of the time I use keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + (tab number) to get around the open tabs, but it would be much more easier if Opera GX had the feature to view tabs side by side or stacked because two tabs from similar subjects can be viewed without being totally mixed up alright,
The other one is tab grouping, which I think most browsers have, so I needn't explain how useful they are. -

@davem Just open a new workspace or go to a existing one.
Forgive me if I'm too pushy, I'm new to Opera, I don't know much of it's features.
Instructions unclear. How do I do it? Can you explain it more clearly?
Could two tabs be viewed like this:

I searched for any extensions to view 2 tabs side by side (split screen) within the same window.
Couldn't find one but I came across this extension, Tab Resize by Peter Shin:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tab-resize-split-screen-l/bkpenclhmiealbebdopglffmfdiilejcPlease don't let the next bit put you off, I think its worth putting up with a minor irritation for the convenience it offers.
The extension is well laid out and easy to use, however in Windows 10 when splitting the tabs into windows there will be a small gap between them, you may not even find this distracting.
I found the fastest way to overcome this is to split the windows, drag the left window to the left so it maximises, then just click on the other window and it will maximise on the right side, no more gaps.
The best bit is when you are done, or if you make a mistake, you just click undo and everything is back where it started in one window. -

Hello I recently came back to Opera GX from Google Chrome and I really miss it's particular feature the "group tabs". It was a really useful feature for me because I open lots of tabs which I want to come back to.
I would really love if you could implement that feature here as well.

I second this feature request. It would be really useful. An implementation such as the one found here would be very nice:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/otto-tabs/pjgajilkdijnbfmglfbpnenocpajmdlb?hl=enUnfortunately that particular extension does not work on Opera GX so it would be greatly appreciated if it were to be natively implemented in Opera GX.
Essentially what the extension does is group the tabs by domain so say you have 7 different youtube tabs open. Firstly all 7 tabs would be grouped together in the top most tab selector in a tab called Youtube afterwards, once you click on it, a 2nd tab selector appears below the top one where u can select which one of the 7 tabs u wanna look at. It basically creates a top most main tab selector and a secondary tab selector below the top one for the tab currently selected. -

Sorry for the double reply.
