Hello, As a Manifest V3 refugee I'm coming from Edge and I really like the changes I see Firefox has made over the years. At our company we started using Firefox by default for new installs instead of Edge for a few weeks now. There are a few features that we definitely miss, namely:

  • Copy Link Text on right click. It's a very helpful feature on Edge. It copies the text that's link formatted because I don't need to open the link I just want to copy the text. Yes holding ALT works, but it's not as convenient.
  • Split Tabs. Split screen is great, but UI elements take up space. It would be nice if it were managed by the browser. That way even going full screen with F11 gets me a clear view of both sites.
  • I also miss the ability to use Bitwarden (or any password manager extension) alongside my browser password manager. I use each for different purposes, and disabling the built-in password manager because an extension is installed means I only have to use Bitwarden. I have it set up in a way that Bitwarden is for secure password that need biometrics, and my browser password manager is for less important passwords (internal tools mostly).

I'm sure more things will come up in the future as I'm using Firefox on both desktop and mobile. And I am really liking it compared to all the browsers I used for both platforms.

There doesn't seem to be an "Other " or "Additional Options" category, so if Settings isn't in the correct category, please tell me where to post this. TIA

I want to be able to create multiple default 'pinned" tabs that will appear every time I open up a new window. Is that possible? If so, how? Again, TIA

I had to restart my computer for updates so I clicked on my container and closed it thinking it was like closing a program and then re-opening it. Now it's gone and several hours research with it. Is there any way to restore a closed container?

How can I get three-state vertical tabs back?

Context: In the customize sidebar section, if the "Vertical tabs" checkbox is checked, the vertical tabs can be switched between showing names and favicons, or just favicons. If, additionally, "Hide tabs and sidebar" is checked, then vertical tabs instead can be switched between showing names and favicons, or being completely hidden. (These settings are in the photo I uploaded)

The recent update seemed to add a feature I had been really wanting from vertical tabs. I could switch between all three states: favicons and names, just favicons, or completely hidden. I could do this by dragging the vertical tab pane smaller or bigger. A few days later, though, it stopped working, but I didn't change any settings (as far as I remember).

Is there any way to get the three-state vertical tabs back? They were really nice!
