Are tablets still popular?
Android tablets are booming rn. I’ve coded lemmy with one for several years now.
what’s your setup for this out of interest? are you running a Dev environment under tmux or something? 🤔
Also with the foldable phones becoming more main stream
Yeah I basically run on my Samsung Tab S8 plus. Much lighter than a laptop and has everything I need. Also Samsung Dex is great if you’ve never used it. I also have a laptop with Arch Linux but I do most of my work on my tablet. For reference I’m a doctor and I use my personal devices for scholarly work. I use Google docs and refworks as my citation manager.
This was my only issue with Firefox on Android and I’m so glad to see it addressed. Honestly kinda expected it’d be years before they look into this.
Yup, especially since tabs were an original mozilla invention, and android is by far the most popular OS in the world.
I thought tabs started with the Opera browser?
Archive.is doesn’t load for me, could you post the original link?

Need Firefox nightly:
-
Go to Settings

About Firefox Nightly
-
Tap the icon 5 times to unlock debug mode
-
Go back
-
Under the about section you’ll see Secret Settings
-
Turn Enable Tab Strip on
That setting does not exist for me

I’m guessing, but I think it only works for tablets. As I don’t see it on my phone, but do see it on my tablet.

Can’t wait to switch back to Firefox. I’ll stick to Vivaldi until a stable release
Not gonna bother setting up Nightly (switching browsers is a pain), but I hope this carries over to Samsung DeX’s desktop mode, one of the updates a few months ago made the font way too large in DeX mode, making it almost unusable in that mode.
