A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Opera were visionary. But I was only referring to detached tabs, which Mozilla implemented, Chrome followed and now Vivaldi.

What are detached tabs? Sandboxed? Dragged out into their own window? Genuine question

You see how the tabs don't connect to the address bar

Wait so it's just a design choice? I mean I get they were the first but really, who really cares about stuff like that?

Mozilla get so much flack of late, it's good to balance that and give them credit where it's due.

The new software design trends is to break free for skeumorphism completely. "tabs" are no longer tabs, they are buttons or whatever. Firefox is doing the same.
