I love how Edge has implemented their tab groups - it is elegant and easy to name a tab group and give it a color. I use that feature all the time.
But in Vivaldi is possible to have it automatically without any click.
So which is better?
Look this post and then answer the question:
Edge. It's not even close.

@Kyle77 I totally agree! vertical coloured tab groups is one of my favourite features in Edge. It completely changed the way I interact with my browser. As a Linux user, I generally shy away from anything Microsoft but Edge is very well done on Linux. I ditched Chrome, Firefox, Brave and Opera, and used Edge instead. Discovered Vivaldi not long ago, after the announcement that one of the Linux distros had dumped Firefox for Vivaldi. I checked it out and really liked it. I just miss the coloured tab groups in Edge, if it wasn't for that I would dump Edge even and just use Vivaldi exclusively.

I still use Chrome (I hear the moans), but the colored tabs is pretty important to me. Hacking the browser to color the tabs has its draw backs - namely I couldn't get it working, but also its not guaranteed to continue working after each update.

I moved from Chrome and the only thing I really miss is the tab groups having different colors that make them easily distinguishable. It would make my experience much better to have this little feature.

This Definitely should be added
-
Agreed with elhernly. I have just swapped from chrome to vivaldi and being able to color my tab stacks would be excellent.

@MisterZed This topic is tagged as Will Not Do, so if you want this, look at the CSS solution.

It works for me without any problems.

how depressing...

@MisterZed If you think the cup is half empty you may be sad; but if you realise it is half full you can always be happy.

I am a great fan and user of Vivaldi for years, but having said that, I have to use Edge in my work - no Vivaldi is possible there - and yes the ability to color a group of tab in Edge is really something I miss in Vivaldi
-
@netean 5 years later and still no coloured tabs groups
-
Hello. I wish Vivaldi gets an update that involves customisable tab groups that are able to coloring like Edge browser... Current group tabs are so confusing in Vivaldi
-
Sadly, even Microsoft Edge has coloured tab groups now (albeit through an extension)
-
@netean Vivaldi also has coloured tab groups by using a CSS modification. Read the thread to find the relevant posts.

Why Vivaldi team introduced CSS modification in the first place?
Think about it.

@barbudo2005 cool, so I just have to learn how to code and I'm good!

@Pesala True you can do that through CSS. But not all users know how to even do such a thing. Which is the advantage Chrome, Edge and Brave have. Its all available through a right click and drag. Pick your colour, rename your group and you are ready to go.
I think people here are seeking for such native build and not rely on coding to seek what they want.

The CSS mod is just a workaround for people with coding skills, it can’t be a reasonable solution for the full audience.
As of now this feature is already a standard, and we miss it! Is like “find and replace” in any text editor…

Wrong.
It is like "copy and paste". A feature that is already a standard in any browser and text editor.
