Is there a way to assign tabs in the tool bar to specific inbox folders similar to how Gmail USED to do it?
For the last 2 months I have been working to configure Thunderbird to fully replace my Gmail UI usage after their recent change to workspace options and using data to train gemini. When you deactivate those gmail features the first thing you lose are tabs for your Inbox, your Updates and your Promotions.
So far I have used tags, ThunderAI, Ollama and a locally hosted LLM to replicate the sorting of my inbox, but now I would like to be able to configure the Thunderbird UI to allow separate tabs in the menu bar for different folders, in this case Inbox, Updates and Promotions. With Inbox still being the gmail hosted main inbox and Updates and Promotions now being local folders stored in my local thunderbird installation.
Can the Thunderbird UI be configured to display folders as tabs as a default setting? I tried the "folder selection" button under customize on the toolbar but that just gives me a drop down, which is not what I want.

As I have never been a gmail user interface user. I struggle a little with terms like "how Gmail used to do it". I have no real idea how they used to do it.
But I struggle with lots of things, like understanding why you would need an LLM to sort your mail into folders, I use filters and have done so for decades. They do not "learn" but they also do not put the wrong things in the wrong place because they think something meaningless is important. "Important" was the first thing I turned off in the gmail interface.
Have you tried right clicking the folder and simply selecting open in a new tab? Have you looked at the quickfolder addon. It has been popular for decades and sounds a lot like tabbed folders. https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/quickfolders-tabbed-folders/?src=search
