Tab groups and container tabs are the two things I want. Tab groups I'm missing a lot. The extension is not available on mobile.
Remembered one more thing; in Firefox I can only have 31 tabs open before the scroll bar appears. In Chrome it's closer to 90-100! That's kinda huge imo.
If you go to the about:config page you can edit
browser.tabs.tabMinWidthdown to 50 (default is 76) which lets you fit a bit moreIf you want more than that it's possible by editing the userchrome:

Modifying userchrome is admittedly difficult if you're not a developer.. but not out of reach if you're able to follow a guide.
I did set the tabMinWidth first, but the result was... lackluster... to say the least (I like having ~50-100 tabs per window....). However, I JUST found out about userChrome.css before you wrote, and also found code that worked for it!
For anyone else interested:
Guide on creating the userChrome.css file: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html
Code that should be added to the file: .tabbrowser-tab { min-width: 1em !important; clip-width: 1em !important; }
