Also really nice to see the ~10% performance improvement in some workflows in there

Huh, not a feature I ever thought about but could be nice.

Definitively going to be useful. I’m just wondering if this will work with extensions like Adblock or Dark Reader?

I think a built in tab manager is a better idea. But we have a lot of plugins for that so guess it's OK.

Now fix the fact that I have too slowly scroll horizontally through all my tabs because they are individually too wide for the number I have open.

- There's a dropdown next to the tab strip that shows all the tabs (and their titles/names) in a dropdown scrolling list.
  
  Alternatively, the omnibar can search tabs, for the specific one you're looking for. Ctrl+Pageup/Pagedown (and Ctrl+tab) can also fine scrub through the tab strip.

  Thanks. I know. It's still the major thing I miss since switching away from chrome. And the extensions available to solve this are severely lacking.

- To mitigate this you can go to about:config (write it in the address bar) and search for a setting called browser.tabs.tabMinWidth, I usually change the number to 20 (the default minimum width is like 70) and tabs are allowed to become roughly as narrow as in chrome. It's a much simpler and stabler option compared to custom CSS
