The "split view" functionality in is really nice! Read headlines from a single tab. After all the #AI rubbish, finally something good comes from #firefox development 🤗 (lemmy.nz)

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.

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

A hotkey is still additional manual alignment. I'm glad you have a flow that works, just as this feature improves mine.

I thought the same thing until I used it, but now I get it. It's just nicer and more fluid to use
