IIRC https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-groups/?s... is a replacement

Container tabs is totally different, that's about basically having multiple profiles in one window. E.g you can have the work container logged into your work email and work stuff, and your personal container logged in to your personal email and personal stuff, and they don't know about each other. Like incognito, but persistent and within the same window.

That looks really good! I'll have to try it out first, but it makes me more hopeful about Firefox's future.
Will it work after the legacy addons support is removed? If yes, how can you tell? I couldn't find any related keywords I know on the addon's page.
I didn't know of this one, is its tab management any good ? As in how do you move tabs around groups, open/duplicat/close tabs and groups ?

The 'simplified' in its name makes me doubtful it has any of the advanced features I need.

No idea, I haven't used tab groups in a year, so I've never tried the new version.

These "redone" addons that work post 57 start out pretty bare-minimum but they rapidly gain features.

I've been looking for something just like this for Chrome but haven't quite found it yet.
