Taavi Miku (ID: 000000c707e54466) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/16/2023 Still not what I looking for. When splitted vertically (there's upper and lower part), It shows in the lower part a new browser window with address bar and everything else that wastes the screen's real estate.

Darek Gąsiorowski (ID: 000000ec8d22cbd8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/27/2023 Dualles destroys gruops of tabs - I've got 6 groups, each c.a. 20 tabs, now I've one window without groups :( "Split screen" extension does it better.Sometimes millions of users means nothing, especially for old extension without updates.
