The "split view" functionality in @firefox is really nice! Read headlines from a single tab. After all the #AI rubbish, finally something good comes from #firefox development ๐Ÿค—

Screenshot Split view tab showing two medical portals, the British Medical Journal (BMJ) on the left and the New England Journal of Medicine on the right hand side. The tab shows the information of the two sites simultaneously, splitting the view in two sides of equal width.

what's the advantage over just using two windows?

    More horizontal space while using vertical tab bar, only a single window when cycling through alt-tab, saves both tabs if you use saved sessions (vs two windows you would lose one of the tabs when closing both)

    Also not having to adjust the borders manually.

    Those are actually downsides to me; I want to see the name per window and have full control. Unless I'm constantly using the same specific pair frequently, this would only mess up my workflow more.

    not having to adjust the borders manually.

    Surely you know about Win+/Super+Arrow, right?
