I share all criticism on the subject but I must admit there is a killer feature that alone converted me to use Edge on MacOS - native vertical tab bar with tab grouping. It worked much better for me than all Chrome and Firefox extensions I tried before.

I know Brave implemented it recently too so Edge is not the only player in town now, but it was the first! Hopefully the rest of browsers will follow the trend.

Have you tried Vivaldi's vertical tabs? They seem quite powerful and I like the implementation more than Edge's.

More powerful does not necessarily means better. Vivaldi indeed allows much more customization, but for my tab-heavy browsing pattern Edge's (and now Brave's) way suits much more. For example some things I don't like in Vivaldi:

- No colors. In Edge/Brave new color is auto-assigned when creating new tab group and can be overridden at any time.

- When tab group is expanded, the group name/header is not shown. When you have many groups with similar tabs they are much less visually distinct from each other.

- Moving new tab to one of previous collapsed groups can be easily done via context menu in Edge. In Vivaldi you'll have to expand the group and drag the tab.

These are all minor inconveniences but together they make a big difference.
