Dragging tabs around and to new windows is much less seamless, the having it contract and automatically expand on hover is much harder (userChrome.css hacks compared to a single button), and it requires a CSS hack to remove the horizontal tab bar. I use Tab Center Reborn myself, but Edge does it better than anything I've used.

It has a really good implementation of vertical tabs. Vivaldi and Firefox are somewhat close, but they're not nearly as polished.

That's fair. Some Firefox forks, like Pulse and Floorp, have native vertical tabs, but I don't know about your other issues, and forks have their own potential problems.

Both Vivaldi and Edge have vertical tabs.

That's odd. That's really dumb for those third-party technicians to take that, as (aside from the damage to their reputation and simply not being a good person), it would probably be a degraded battery anyway. Being constantly plugged in is very bad for a battery.

userChrome.css, vertical tabs, better integration with the host system than Vivaldi or Edge, and support for fling scrolling that's not insanely fast on touchpads.

Behavior-based antivirus is extremely difficult, failure-prone, and almost entirely unnecessary because of how secure Linux is, so they don't exist to my knowledge. Signature-based antivirus is basically useless because any security holes exploited by a virus are patched upstream rather than waiting for an antivirus to block it. ClamAV focuses on Windows viruses, not Linux ones, so it can be a signature-based antivirus, but not many people run an email server accessed by Windows devices or other similar services that require ClamAV, so not many people use it, and nobody made any alternatives.

If you're worried about security, focus on hardening and updates, not antiviruses.

Just a commercialized Matrix server with some well-integrated bridges.

You can use Element, Schildichat, Fluffychat, or anything else with it if you prefer. It's just a Matrix server with some bridges and a fork of Element.

The only window is Firefox, which makes it hard to tell, but I'd guess it's GNOME with the Aylur extension.

Random ideas:

  • Caching of the main feed, so pressing "back" after being on a post doesn't shift things around
  • Caching of the last post, so going back to the main feed then opening the post again does not reload it

Those two might only work with an SPA or possibly the PWA.

  • A button to hide read posts
  • Gestures on mobile (swipe on a comment to vote or reply, maybe swipe on the post to go back to the main feed, though that might need an SPA)
  • I know this is difficult, but maybe infinite scroll
