    Seems a bit redundant when you can just use split windows no?

      Window management has barely improved in decades in mainstream OSs. We’ve got snapping in Windows and macOS* but that’s only useful if you want your two windows to take up the total screen real estate between them. Others, you’re manually adjusting both windows - it’s messy and not ideal.

      *I’ve only used headless Linux for a long time, so I don’t know what the scene is over there.

      Give me a second…

      Yup. My system still supports multiple things at once.

      Perhaps this is for psychopaths that maximize every window?

      No one asked for this. AI probably came up with this feature.

        I asked for this. I still miss the implementation opera had in the early 2000s.

        Hundreds of people literally and directly asked for this – and that’s ignoring the votes on posts that were merged as duplicates.

          How?! There’s no mention of mobile that I’ve seen for this feature. I also can’t find any split options.

            On graphene os you just hit the square button to view all your running apps then click their name on the top and click split screen, on Samsung you long press on the apps I think.

            I have both Firefox and Firefox focus which is what I used to open two browsers. I almost never use split screen though, the screen is too small for me to be of any use

          Well… technically, they’re not side by side

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don’t be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don’t be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don’t post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don’t post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you’re concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don’t accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you’ve gotten yours.
