Somehow, it makes a lot of groups of tabs which are synced to my Chrome, then in the bookmark bar on the left, there are tens/hundreds of "other" tab groups, which I occasionally try to reopen and close tabs one by one to make that group disappear, but there are still a lot of them... It also makes a mess on my Android phone Chrome, where I see "unclosed tabs" filled with those tab groups

This is great. It makes Brave's implementation of vertical tabs usable for me. Vanilla Brave moves new tabs to the bottom of the tab bar, which makes it feel really awkward to use as I find my eyes darting back and forth for a few seconds to find the tab. I'd originally downloaded this as I was looking for a Brave version of Auto Container Tabs and this seemed to fit the bill for tab management. But I accidentally left it on while doing something completely unrelated to testing it out (I was just showing a friend how many tabs of downloads I had open) and it suddenly made it intuitive. I didn't even expect it to work with a feature not in Chrome by default. Definitely keeping. If you're a Brave user try it!!!! It's also "set and forget" which makes it more usable than the Firefox extension equivalent I was looking for.
