Hey @TheBestUser01234567890 and @danielelurani

Is this what you are looking for?

If yes, you can achieve this by splitting your tabs and selecting the desired layout from here:

Hello @IAmJafeth , thank you for your answer, but no is not what i am thinking. I'm talking about this:

Hear, hear.

I went through about:config trying to find a workaround, but all I could find was zen.tabs.vertical.
Setting this to false creates a mess.

+1 for this option. I'm really used to horizontal tabs in all my browsers. I'd love to have the benefits of Zen Browser but with the option of familiarity in how I manage my tabs. Please add this!

[mauro-balades]

yeah, dont change the about config just yet 👍🏽

@mauro-balades I think this is the most needed option in Zen browser.

I'm joining the choir. I've been a FF user since 2004. I was intrigued buy Zen browser mainly because of the native window splitting option, but I really prefer horizontal tabs. I'll wait till the devs make it an option.

[scgf]

Yes, I'll wait too. I do not like vertical tabs. Not one bit.

Yes, I'll wait too. I do not like vertical tabs. Not one bit.

Me too.

[KPCOFGS]

Same here

Between the comments and the reactions, I think the devs has received the message. As I'm as eager as you to see horizontal tabs implemented, I suggest to avoid adding more comments if it doesn't bring something new to the table
(not meant to be pedantic, just to avoid overloading the devs!) 😉

EDIT: just to add that the devs seem to already working on it. Thank to them!

My plan currently is:

1. translations
2. MacOS license
3. Horizontal tabs

in that order. I hope that y'all understand, but I need to think on how I could do it

[Lenni-builder]

1. translations

Couldn't that be mostly done using Weblate (maybe Crowdin) and (semi-)automatically be merged into the repo? I'd help translating it to German on something like a Weblate instance.

[IAmJafeth]

Hey @Lenni-builder !

Thanks for offering to contribute to the German version, here is the Crowdin link for Zen Browser:
