https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/collections-firefox would this work? it looks like what you're talking about but i haven't used a smartphone in a while and my strategy is more tab chaos than organization so I'm not that familiar

No, I'm afraid those are just elite bookmarks kept on your home screen. sadness

Damn :/

the deal breaking difference being that you have to reload them when you open them? or that they don't appear in the tab navigation part of the UI, only the landing page? or something else? My brain is working on slow mode today

Edit: I guess if we're comparing to desktop ff containers the isolation of sites and cookies is probably the big thing. Did some research, seems like this has been blocked by various missing pieces of prerequisites for like 6 years now. Though one person in one reddit comment said on ff for android nightly, or forks like iceraven, you can just install the desktop extension and it kinda mostly works. That was years ago, it might have gotten better or worse.

Yes, yes, and yes.😅 There is no tab management besides the ability to move them around on the tab UI page. No grouping, no labeling. I open a LOT of tabs. It's really been hampering my ff experience. I'll have to think about Firefox nightly and see how much of a hassle it'll be.
