нельзя совмещать группировку вкладок в воркспейсах. MS Edge лучше, жаль

If this extension were to go away, I'd probably cry! I am a Linux user. I use a dozen 'Linux' workspaces for different clients and projects, which means many more dozens of browsers and tabs that I can open and close separately, keeping everything in order and the same as the last time I worked on it. Workspaces is probably my favourite plugin for productivity. I'd be lost without it. Truly.
