You Can Remix Your Google Chrome Experience With Vertical Tabs and Immersive Reading

On Tuesday, Google announced Chrome users can now enable vertical tabs, moving the tab strip to the side of the browser window alongside a refreshed Reading Mode offering distraction-free, full-page reading.
After years of resisting, Google Chrome is adopting vertical tabs, a feature popularized by Arc; rival browsers including Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Vivaldi, and Brave have long offered the capability.
Users can right-click any Chrome window and select "Show Tabs Vertically" to enable the feature in the left sidebar, making full page titles visible even when tab count hits double digits.
The refreshed Reading Mode now opens pages in full-screen layout instead of a narrow sidebar, allowing users to right-click any page to "Open in reading mode" and customize font, color, and line height.
Chrome's vertical tabs feature is rolling out gradually to all markets, remaining the default setting until users change them; Google says the layout optimizes multitasking by keeping open pages organized and accessible.
