I'd like to use an option within Firefox to have my social media in the sidebar instead of using Ferdium (or something like that), so that when I open another application in the sidebar it doesn't close and close everything I was previously viewing. I don't mind the resources that this might consume.

i found that this extension have conflict with youtube music. When not focusing on youtube music tab, the player will automatically stopped immediately. Its only starting if the user is opening the youtube music tab. To fix that, you need to remove this extension

Would be great if the page didn't reload every time I switch to a different sidebar extension, though I think this has more to do with the way sidebar extensions work in general than this one in particular. Other than that, the only feature I would suggest adding is a navigation bar specifically for the side view page (including address bar, back, forward, and refresh; maybe even the ability for multiple tabs within the side view - make it sort of a mobile browser within the desktop browser).

This was what I was looking for! #firefox4ever

It's not as good as the split tab view in Microsoft Edge. The quality difference is night and day lol.

The implementation is a bit clunky. It has some issues:

- The Back and Forward navigation doesn't work! 😦
- The Context menu is a smaller version than the Context menu when opened in the normal panel. It misses multiple entries, like the top navigation icons.
- It doesn't support loading pages by drag & drop from the Bookmarks toolbar or the address bar's lock icon.
- Also, Dark Reader doesn't work in the Side View panel. 🤷

It's a pity that this add-on is implemented half-baked. Because split tab functionality is very useful.

Its nice to read some page, but when you click in a link, the link opens on the other side of the screen.

I think this would be better if the tabs were independents. I mean, I could easily change the website by clicking on navbar.

Brave does it in a better way.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Finally! I have been waiting for years for the devs to allow unrestricted width of the side view. It was fixed at a ridiculous small width. Why did it take so long!?

It's good but it makes YouTube Music a little bit buggy.

Apart from the pop-up URL menu not applying dark mode based on the theme, everything else is great! Moreover, with the new sidebar design, the user experience is close to that of a browser that supports window splitting!

I love this extension but I absolutely need a keyboard shortcut! We have Ctrl+B and Ctrl+H but then I am forced to pick the mouse to click for the Side View. Also the page open in sideview do not work as regular pages, and every time you open Side View, the page start from top... would be nice if you are sending a page in Side View, the view being about the same 'height' of contents you reached in your tab.

Really like this addon. Please take a look at what zen-browser is doing with splits for further inspiration.

Thanks!

some sites like temu.com broken when i ON this extension
