Introducing Workspaces in Edge | New feature
I have used Vivaldi's session, Chrome and Edges' tab group, titled window, and Opera's workspaces. I have to say Opera's workspaces feature has best user experience. Now, Edge has dockable history, dockable bookmark, dockable download and sidebar search, maybe a real sidebar is needed to put these all together.

You haven't tried Edge's workspaces yet. tab groups are just to color tabs for better visibility and finding them. workspaces are very different.
window naming is meh. never used it, don't know why it's even there. it's too manual and time consuming for me that opens and closes windows constantly.
HotCakeX Actually, I did use Edge's workspaces feature since I know it. I moved my tabs from another user profile to a workspace named "Life", so I don't have to maintain 2 sets of extensions, adblock rules, proxy rules. English is not my first language, so let me try again
. Edge's workspace is a shortcut to open your named windows which can constantly and automatically save. Before it, you open a window, open some tab, close the window, you lost them( You still can find them in history's recent closed section)I mixed two things in last post:
1) All mainstream browser made some effect to make tabs better, but currently, opera's workspaces has the best user experience, because Opera has a sidebar, when you add a workspace, a new icon appeared, so you only need 1 click switch between workspaces, the whole browser has only 1 window in taskbar.
2) Edge need a sidebar to put all dockable thing(bookmark, history, download, sidebar search) together, also, workspaces feature can leverage it to get better user experience.
Hopefully, I made myself clear.
- Exactly.
the only thing preventing me from leaving opera to join edge is because of thee features you just mentioned. I think Opera got the best in terms of that design.
