Tab grouping is nice, but I’ve found Sidebery to meet my needs (specifically nested tab groups, and separating projects — plus it worked out of the box with Firefox Color) much better. I have it configured to automatically unload collapsed branches, which is nice as a tab hoarder, and it can fully send entire panels to your bookmarks for later usage (this is a massive performance improvement when you’re regularly opening 100–200 tabs/day per panel). A native solution, however, would be much appreciated — as long as there’s a way to nest tab groups and unload their contents.
I went with floorp, because it allowed native title bar disabling, with task bar editing so I could inject a grab handle; vertical tabs in sidebery, and a clean, nearly-ui-free vertical.
You can actually fairly easily unload tabs with about:unloads right now, but you have to do it in the order FacebookFirefox thinks they should be done for some reason.
Honestly, I don’t know why, but sidebar tabs have just never worked for me. It makes no sense, but for some reason my brain just doesn’t process them correctly.
But I agree, in general more fine-grained control of tabs would be the thing I would need in order to feel like Firefox was feature-complete.
Uh, no, they definitely need tab grouping before they get into making CSS theming easier.
Looks to be in the works which makes me very happy. If you use nightly, make sure browser.tabs.groups.enabled in about:config is enabled

I’m on Librewolf, but Floorp sounds nice!

I would very much welcome them adding support for HDR content too
