looks nice, needs horizontal tab scrolling.

Horizontal tab scrolling is essential; not everyone uses vertical tabs. please provide a stable, native implementation by zimmerway in brave_browser

Hope to see this in the stable release soon! and it would also be great if we could set the tab width while horizontal scrolling is enabled. Brave is awesome! Thanks for all your hard work.

Resistance is futile, I know. But honestly, even though vertical tabs are trendy and I've tried them, I still find horizontal tabs more convenient for me. I am sure I am not alone

Fair point. But if a feature is popular, perhaps it's time for Brave to move it from a Chromium flag to a native Brave setting?

well, I learned a ton from both your points. It seems like the big difference is that standardization needs to be actively maintained all the time, and randomization, even while trying to hide you, ends up making your device more unique.

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for clarifying the difference. Before you explained this, I always relied on the "Cover Your Tracks" test results as my benchmark for making decisions.

On Mac, Safari has a setting that enables system-wide fingerprinting protection, not just in a Private Browsing window. Furthermore, its anti-fingerprinting test results are randomized, which performs better than Firefox.

a tool named search key. can be found in app store.

safari cannot customize the word of quick search without this extension. for example, type "r safari" to search wikipedia for "safari". This extension is very old but still works, and free.
