Slimmer sidebar?

[Deleca7755]

Came from https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/workspaces-à-la-opera/idi-p/66/page/2#comments
Works great, I'm just wondering If we can slim the sidebar. Right now It's pretty wide, compared to Opera's

Wow, I didn't expect anyone to test my extension 😃 I'm glad, you like it 😊
Unfortunately, it does not yet work completely reliably (especially after restarts). There were so many edge cases I had to address, that it was really tough to get everything right. Also I hadn't really the time the last months to further improve it.
Firefox works on a native sidebar and tab groups btw, so the extension shouldn't be needed in the future anyway.

But to answer your question, finally, you have to create a userChrome.css, in which you override the sidebar min-width.
I also wrote a custom userChrome (https://github.com/JVariance/ON-E--FIRE-Theme), which you can try.

Best regards 👋🏼

Hello, would it be possible to add to the repo for the custom userChrome how to apply it please? I have discovered your extension as well and have the same issue as the OP :)

@Deleca7755 @MrInfro I stumbled across Zen Browser today and it's awesome. It's based on Firefox, has a sleek UI, Split View, Workspaces, profile manager, .... You should check it out :)

I would use Zen If It had the basic feature of horizontal tabs like every other browser In the stratosphere. For reasons unknown to me, the dev refuses because It's part of the "philosophies" of the browser Instead of making something good for accessibility that people clearly want

Makes no sense... sigh

as for Floorp, I did like that one, but workspaces are a bit buggy. Pinned tabs persist across them, and If you open two windows and then close both of them, your workspaces will just reset. Floorp 12 will apparently fix this, whenever that Is

thanks for trying to find us alternatives, though. right now It's just a waiting game again

I am currently running Floorp (upon your mention), and so far I didnt noticed what you are describing, but then again, I am hardly using pinned tabs :)

Its sad though, since everything these alternatives do is just trying to reproduce Opera... but then again, atleast it works for me in tandem with my antivirus :D
