Actually it's WebKit fork by Google called Blink.

And I do use Opera as a default browser.

The correct Ctrl+Tab behaviour which works like Alt+Tab (switch between the most recent tabs, with a small popup list of tabs) is the main reason for that. Much more productive for me than the usual "cycle over all of open tabs sequentially" behaviour that Chrome, Firefox, and everyone else have (except the Vivaldi browser).

There is an option to change that behavior in Firefox.

There's tabmixplus that is way better than changing setting in about:config.

In Firefox:

1. Go to about:config

2. Search for browser.ctrlTab.previews

3. Change value to `true`

4. Close tab

Now your ctrl+tab should work as you want.

God I'd love to be able to do that in Chrome. Managing tabs totally fucking sucks, I hate that I can't combine multiple tabs into a single drop-down, or easily change the title of a tab, or tighten up the spacing, or anything I should be able to do in a modern browser.

Not being able to move tabs with the keyboard annoys me more than it should. Of course, I also wish the switching used the same method as window-switching, but I really wish tab/window/app switching was globally handled by the OS, and fully configurable in terms of behaviour.

Funny because back in the day there were no tabs.

If you wanted multiple sites open you had multiple browser windows on the taskbar.

That became unmanageable quite fast, so we got tabs.

Note btw that even the earliest Opera had "tabs". It used MDI to provide multiple sites within a single browser window. This stuck with Opera all the way to version 12. After that they changed over to being a Chrome clone.

Firefox has a toggle of that in settings.
