The ability to control click a link into a tab excited me. But it won't save in the options. This is no longer a tab application, it is a windowed application. I didn't like the Google version so I used the Firefox version. Now this is going away. Another addon bites the dust. This is a Firefox issue not the Add-on developer's issue. Without this great tool, I will probably go back to Chrome.

The point was to have tabs split in the same window and switch layouts / tabs within the same browser window.
I can open new windows myself without using this "add-on".

I did not use the 'old but very useful' version a lot but still enough to know that the new WE version is absolutely useless as is. I too want tabs tiled in the same browser window not in separate windows. This change makes the add-on pointless.

the older, non WE version is better.
to Developer of the WE version, Thank you for the try but I can resize my browsers without the help of the addon. What we can not do is having multiple tile windows in one browner.

This updated version does not work like the old Tile Tabs. Tile Tabs was the reason I was using Firefox. This updated version now works by spitting tabs in to windows, instead of keeping all tiles within a singular window. This could easily be done with a window manager, and no longer serves the needs I have.

This plugin used to be the reason, that I used FireFox, now there is no reason anymore. While I understand, that the changes were triggered by Mozilla, it means, that the plug-in doesn't help me anymore. For similar functionality I could use any kind of OS based windows tools.

Even for just windows oriented "tiling" I can't use it anymore:
- double click on the tab doesn't work anymore
- using new layout moves tabs to another display, therefore unusable in multi display environments.

Where is "Tile Tabs"? This is better call it "Tile Windows". Damned Firefox 57!

Intenten volver a tile view, no es muy util el modo de operacion de tile tab we.
de hecho estoy buscando alternativas.
me resulta mucho mejor la version anterior

This is bad. Firefox is having a suicide party for itself and all its developers :(

Seems like I'll be sticking to an obsolete version of Firefox in the future so I can keep the real TileTabs extension and not this... neutered version.
I do not want multiple windows open having to close them one by one when switching programs or whatever reason.
Shame on Firefox Devs or whoever decided this was a good idea, this stuff is what killed opera and many other great apps and programs in the past. Will they ever learn.

I'll keep using TileTABS on an old Firefox version.

This is not a upgrade from older version. It is like going backwards. I hate how it works now. I dont want my tabs to be seperated from the window and got resized. It is too messy. The older version was so awesome.

You've taken such a wonderful extension and completely butchered it. It should no longer be called TileTabs as the functionality is completely different and to me, not worth installing.

I guess all good things have to come to an end! It is such a horrible end for me as I've come to rely on TileTabs a whole lot. It's a shame I had not donated to this project before; but I'd be hard pressed to do so now.

doesn't work.
When I press an icon, instead of opening 2 windows nearby - they vanish absolutely.
Win 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 RU (Russia)
(how to write the answer?)

Instead of tiling 2 TABS next to each other it opens 3 WINDOWS and tiles two while third is in the background.
Like seriously? Is this that crispy new technology? You can't tile 2 tabs?

Does not preform easily, hard to customize and with dual screen it messes everything up.

The old add-on was great:
Have one browser with several tiles.
The new add-on is stupid and useless:
It just opens other browsers and places them next to each other! So stupid! Why would I need an add-on for this? I can just open several instances of Firefox myself! Obviously this is due to Firefox' new API-program-stuff (see ratings below). So the blame goes to Firefox, not to the DW-devs.

I hate the way tile tabs work in Chrome.
This replicates that.
You used to be able to have multiple pages side by side in the 1 browser window. Now it replicates the chrome way by opening a new window and setting the size of both windows to fit the layout.
I can do this in Windows with one mouse movement per window which snaps windows to the corners or sides.
Like I said, useless. Maybe if youre using it on MAC OS or Linux this add-on could help. Completely pointless in Windows.
If you dont know about snapping windows to the corners or sides, go to google and search for aero snapping. This works in Windows 7 (with snapping to the sides and top) and Windows 10 allows snapping to corners.
This will save you the time of installing a useless app which takes up memory and doesnt do snapping as well as the in built Windows system.
Avoid!

The old version is smootly and finest no lag.
The new is creapy!
All old version functional and feature need the WE.

This extension is non-functional. New windows I can open with the "New window" button w/o addon. Firefox is steadily losing all its advantages.

let's be real here, i have a mouse, i can make multiple windows with said mouse and multiple iterations of firefox. That was my workaround before the original add-on cam into my life.

and that will be what I use after 57 comes out, because why add load time to my browser for something I can do myself? nope. sorry. Give me actual tabs like the legacy version, or I'm not interested.

I know you guys are "trying" but trying isn't good enough when All you can do is replicate the functionality of clicking the firefox shortcut multiple times.

Dear developers of Tile Tabs and Tile Tabs WE, I totally get it's not your fault that this extension cannot provide the SAME functionality like the old one, just the closest resemblance you could get to, and that it is not you but WE that is just not capable of providing it.

It IS however your fault, to make a decision that a window should be opened for me, which basically tells me "Tile Tabs won't work but Tile Tabs WE will", without proper notice that Tile Tabs WE will NOT provide the same functionality. Let's be clear here - that thing you call "Tile Tabs WE" is just a totally different add-on, and to me it's basically "Tile Tabs" with the core feature - tiling tabs - removed and replaced by something everyone could already do - tiling windows.

Which for me (and apparently many others) defeats the whole purpose of having an add-on anyway. I can already comfortably tile real windows without an add-on, and that was the only reason I've been using "Tile Tabs" anyway. I don't want your overcomplicated grid management with grids in grids in grids, or synchronized scroll, and whatnot. All I cared about was the feature that I could double click on a tab to have two pages next to each other in one window.

If that's impossible anyway, I can also just drag the tab down a bit and have the same result without another add-on, you know...

To be honest, I think it would be only fair if you changed the whole marketing behind this:
1) On the Tile Tabs add-on page, announce that Tile Tabs will retire due to Mozilla moving on to WE, which will render it incompatible as of November 2017.
2) Rename this add-on into "Tile Windows", since that's what it does; it does NOT tile tabs, it tiles windows.
3) Add a reference to this "Tile Windows" add-on on the "Tile Tabs" page, along with a clear message stating that this add-on is just a compromise trying to offer all the other functionality BUT the tiled tabs and instead tiles windows.
4) And finally, in the very first sentence of this add-on description (and I mean literally the first sentence, before the first heading, preferable in uppercase), be VERY CLEAR about how this add-on unfortunately CANNOT emulate the old "Tile Tabs" behaviour because of WE restrictions, but tries to find a compromise.

This add-on gets a 1* rating, not because it's bad per se, but because it is just not what you are telling us users it was. This is NOT, and I repeat, NOT a "Tile Tabs" alike add-on. It's something completely different. Rename the add-on and make the difference very clear in the beginning of this add-ons description, then we can talk again. Until then, bad marketing decisions that lead to vague add-on descriptions and false hopes, leave unsatisfied users like me hardly any other choice than giving it bad reviews.

no functionality at all, only the icon is the same as prevous version
did not support multiple screens

To put it plainly: it slows the browser and only creates new windows (and syncs their size).
The old, legacy, version is much better and was 100% worth it. This is not living up to it.

Compared to the original, this is a joke. I can already tile windows without the extension. Comparing this extension to the original, we can see how Mozilla will lose the rest of its power users.

1- it is a bad idea to replace splitters by plain windows, it wastes space, and is cumbersome to arrange
2- I use 2 screens and this WE release has obviously not been tested
