Expected results:

I really enjoy the feature for sending tabs between devices. It would be extremely helpful if I could 'send all tabs to device'. I now there is the ability to sync, but I don't want to sync all tabs to all devices. I want to be in the middle of a project/thought and send just that to just one other device.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Thanks for the suggestion!

While it may not be exactly what you're looking for, Firefox does support the ability to send multiple tabs at once - you can select the first tab, then control-click to select additional tabs, then finally right-click and select "Send N tabs to device" from the context menu.

Actually, I just now noticed that there is a "select all tabs" option, so you can do:

  • Right-click in tab bar of current tab -> "Select all tabs"
  • Right-click again -> "Send N tabs to device"

And I think this will do almost exactly what you want.

That's certainly close enough. I didn't realize you could do that. Thanks very much for the quick reply and the info!
