You are missing out a lot of features in latest chrome for side tab by using 15. there are extensions if you want to try.

They say they will come up with a solution in the future. Side Tabs are pretty much ESSENTIAL for me, and nothing I have tried works as well. Once this Google solution is out I will try it, and if it works for me, then I may upgrade.

The side tab was implemented to solve tab overflow issue. I wouldn't have my hopes up on the solution to come any soon.

this build has a tab overflow implementation

Once it becomes stable, I will give it a go. I always have a full column of tabs 20-30+ and having them up top is ridiculous!

^Chrome had this before in the dev-builds. Not sure how long ago but it was before I switched from Chrome to Firefox which is at least roughly 2 years ago. Switched back to Chrome last week after being annoyed by Firefox locking up at launch and other things.

There seems to be a issue with the bookmarks bar, in my bookmarks bar I have just other bookmarks in the bookmarks bar, before when i would click on it it would fill that whole side with my saved bookmarks and I could scroll through them, in this build which is 21.0.1152.0 all i get is a little pop up at the bottom right corner, so instead of seeing alot of them, i see 1 at a time

Didn't you mention this last time? I really think you need to update your browser. Better security and I think it's faster as well. Don't live in the past man :p

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
