Have a plus sign after the existing tabs to open a new tab

RobOK

I would like to open a new tab from a plus sign immediately to the right of the open tabs. This is how Chrome works, and if I have both open, its good to have continuity.

This should be an option to turn on as many people might not prefer it as a default.

Just press command-t or use vertical tabs

You can add a new tab button to the toolbar by going to View > Customize Toolbar and dragging the new tab button onto the toolbar.

Here is a screen shot of two browsers. The green box is Microsoft Edge and the orange box is Google Chrome. In fairness, Edge is a Chromium based browser. I understand people coming from Safari are not used to this, but people coming from Chrome or chromium based browsers have this by default and I have muscle memory. I am requesting it be an option and am okay if it is "off' by default.

RobOK Thanks I now understand the request. This would require redesign of the entire tab bar (our tabs go from edge to edge). Also from a UX standpoint a fixed location of + is likely better than a moving one. I understand the habit, but not all habits are good 🙂
