Bug 1875465 was the first step to add tab strip support. As that doesn't cover all the functionalities expected from tab strip, this bug will be a central place to list all the missing functionalities and related bugs.

Tabs on strip do not show site title of website when clicking on a link within website. Page needs to reload in order for website title to show correct again.

There are sites that I noticed the tab strip no longer hides the toolbar. On my company website for example, I cannot use Nightly due to the comment section, I am unable to view now, due to Toolbar not hiding. It's cutoff on the bottom,

Thanks for the info Kaoxt. What's the behaviour on phone on those websites? Could you please share the websites where this happens?

It appears on my company site, https://caleres.unily.com/

I believe it may happen on any site using the unily platform. It has a navigation in place on top and bottom that's in the same spot regardless of scrolling. When putting browser into desktop view it does not have the same issue and the toolbar does hide. The navigation that stays in the same spot in mobile view goes away in desktop view. It appears to happen only in mobile view.

I am using a Pixel Tablet.

@[e-mail], of course, technically. However, I've yet to see an FR for it. If you file one, I'll support it.

I would be delighted to have it on phone, as all other browsers I have used include it (Opera, Vivaldi, Samsung browser, Brave iOS).
