I used them when they were released a while ago for the nightly version of Firefox, and actually in the stable channel we are in Firefox 130 and still no vertical tabs, does anyone know an aproximate version when they will be available for the stable channel?

It will appear on the stable channel, when the devs think the feature is "stable"

I know it's probably not what you had in mind but this works very well.

Whoops this was supposed to be a reply to the main post.

You can enable them right now by setting sidebar.verticalTabs = true in about:config

Its very basic right now. It literally just lists the tabs. You cant group them or anything.

Still, its nice to see it actually being implemented, and Im sure itll get better over time.

Looks like there are lot of dependencies that are still not resolved. You can watch the current state of bug reports here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1894060

You can use Sideberry and userChrome modification until the vertical support is stable and customizable. I'll probably continue to use it even after that because Sideberry has a lot more.
