Feature Request - Tile Tabs / Tiling Tabs feature from Vivaldi browser
Came across Vivaldi browser and it has some lovely features that I think would benefit Edge, some of these features have already been mentioned/requested however, I am a great fan of the new Edge run...

I also want tile tabs or open in sidebar!
I searched for "tile" here to see if someone opened up that feature request. Glad to see it here.
I love Vivaldi's implementation of it. It's superb. It's in the browser, and no need to have other browser windows opened to do this. You just select multiple tabs and click the tile tabs.
In Firefox, you right click somewhere and do a "open in sidebar" and it works now to open it in the same browser window. Resizable, etc.
Edge really needs that. I don't want to snap multiple windows side by side. I want same tab, same browser tiling.
Vivaldi is very feature rich but an ultra-buggy browser that cannot be used for work or any serious usage. Perhaps only for 1 to 5 tabs at a time. Try creating multiple windows temporarily, use it a bit, move tabs around from one window to another, close the browser, re-open the browser, watch your tabs get mixed all over the windows, you'll start losing tabs. That's just one bug out of the 30+ I reported to them in the past years (none fixed because all they care about is adding new broken features rather than test them properly and fix previous bugs and make sure the foundation of the browser is well built).

I see another way this could be implemented. Edge sidebar should be resizable so you can have 2 websites open in the same tab.

if Edge developers expand this sidebar to 1) let us open links in sidebar and 2) make the sidebar resizable, i believe we all will be happy, because i actually want it to be resizable too to have more flexibility.
it's best to install Edge on your device, use its features and where you see something needs to be done, send feedback using the feedback button on it so that developers will get your feedback directly.
