Are there any tab group extensions that do it similarly to chrome, with collapsible groups in the tab bar?

Bewarned that the mobile Firefox app is really not great.
- I am a chronic tab-user (I have more than a hundred open right now. Yes I'm using pretty much all of them.) and 70% of the time when hitting the tab button it doesn't actually scroll to the most recent tab. I have to tap it repeatedly to get to where I was.
- The tab list is horribly wasteful when it comes to space and I see no way to change it.
- Some sites also shit the bed completely when auto-filling from my password manager. Like full on freeze the browser or crash it entirely.
- When an app opens Firefox in an embedded browser to get you to log in, it will pretty much never direct you back to the app after putting your information in. You have to tap the three dots and open it in the actual app for even a chance that it will properly redirect you.
- For 2fa sometimes this doesn't even work. I have to scan my 2fa key then quickly open it in the actual app through the menu before it finishes loading, otherwise it doesn't redirect or gets stuck in a login loop. Fun.
The browser is fine overall, don't get me wrong, there's just some inconveniences that aren't getting fixed.

LibreWolf is Firefox without Mozilla telemetry, and with privacy settings on by default. Consider switching.
Be aware that the more extensions you add, the easier it is for websites to fingerprint (identify) you.
Used it for a while, but it seems to have issues when using the Dark Reader extension and I cannot handle staring at white pages at night
LW is great - comes with UBO pre-installed. The only thing I'd say about it is that, for Linux users, avoid the appimage as its a bit twitchy and forgets settings sometimes.
Is there a way to do credit card autocomplete on the iOS app? It’s the only reason I haven’t made the switch

The only extension I cannot live without other than an adblocker is Mouse Gestures.
Consent-o-matic
Ublock origin (activate cloud storage and sync rules between devices!)
Bitwarden
Onetab
Firefox translations
Dark reader
Privacy redirect
This is a switch I made yesterday, but instead of Chrome to Firefox, I switched from Vivaldi (Chrome, but kinda like old Opera) to Floorp (japanese fork of Firefox with focus on privacy and sane defaults).
I got Sponsorblock for YouTube, uBlock Origin for ads and Gesturify for those awesome mouse gestures (my main reason for using an Opera-like).
Sometimes, I use Tampermonkey for misc Scripts on different Pages, so I installed that aswell. But for now, no scripts for Tampermonkey, as I primarily focus on setting it up to be more like Vivaldi.
Other addons are Ghostery for more privacy and Session Buddy to prevent oopsies when playing around with Tabs and windows.
Floorp even has dark mode for bright pages already included in the box.
Based on what I've read here on Lemmy, people generally tend to recommend agaåinst Ghostery, check this for one example : https://lemm.ee/comment/4348493
It's the an extension for Google Passwords? It's my password manager for all my devices.
I would love to switch to Firefox, but I don't want to open chrome every time I need a to retrieve/save a password.
Switch to BitWarden, then use this tutorial to get your passwords from Chrome into BitWarden.
It has a web, desktop and mobile app and also a Firefox extension, which are all here.
Switching to Bitwarden takes minutes. Export from Google, import to Bitwarden. They have a phone app too which will sync with your browser one.

Cookies: Cookie autodelete or Forget me not
Block site (so you're not sent where you don't want to go)
Wayback Machine (if you use it much)
Audio equalizer (to better understand mumbly / old Youtube audio)
Dark background and light text (so you don't go blind)
Surprised noone mentioned NoScript yet. It requires a bit more user interaction. But if you are worried about privacy and maybe security, it is important to know who is running scripts on your machine.

Panorama Tabs! My favorite tab organizer. Also Dark Reader.
This thread is full of good suggestions so here are a few that might not have been mentioned:
- Torrent Control - useful for sending magnet links directly to a variety of clients.
- Offline QR Code Generator - good for quickly sending all sorts of stuff to a phone or tablet.
- Better YouTube Shorts - depends if you like them, but this adds autoplay which I love
- TamperMonkey - extensions for your extensions! Usually site specific.
