Order tabs suggestion

Requested feature
Add an option to sort selected tabs alphabetically (ideally by tab title, optionally by URL/domain) within the current window.

Problem / why this matters
When you have dozens (or hundreds) of tabs open, related tabs often end up scattered across the tab strip because they were opened at different times, from different domains, or via multiple workflows. Even if you can multi-select tabs, there’s no fast way to “cluster” them into an orderly block without manually dragging each one. This creates friction when trying to:

  • group tabs for a task (research, shopping, debugging, travel planning, etc.)

  • reduce cognitive load and find duplicates

  • clean up before closing or bookmarking a set

Proposed behavior:

  • Allow users to multi-select tabs (or “Select all tabs”), then apply Sort selected tabs A→Z (and optionally Z→A).

  • Sorting should operate only on the selected tabs, keeping all unselected tabs in their original positions.

  • The sorted tabs should remain selected after the operation.

  • Primary sort key: tab title. Optional secondary sort: hostname/domain or full URL for users who prefer it.

Example workflow

  1. Open lots of tabs across multiple sites over time.

  2. Select a set of tabs related to one project.

  3. Run “Sort selected tabs A→Z” → those tabs become an organized block, making it easier to scan, close duplicates, or bookmark.

Why it should be seriously considered :folded_hands:

  • Lowers tab-management overhead for heavy tab users without changing default behavior for everyone.

  • Fits naturally with existing multi-select mental models (apply an operation to the selected items).

  • Improves organization and discoverability, especially when tabs are scattered and manual reordering is time-consuming.

  • Complements Brave’s productivity focus without requiring a full “tab groups” workflow.

If helpful, I’m happy to clarify expected edge cases (duplicate titles, pinned tabs, tab groups, etc.) or provide a simple mock of the menu placement. Thank you for the reading and the support. And for the Brave dev team, big hug as well, Brave has advanced SO MUCH in the last years that is amazing the difference between first versions and what we can do now with it, so ty <3

Topic: I would like there to be more tab organisation features.

Encouragement: The tab-groups function is already highly helpful for organisation, but can be improved so tabs do not need to be individually moved to a tab-group.

Suggestion: Automatic tab grouping by website:
1. proposed 1st phase
Start this feature small by only offering it for most used sites (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, ChatGPT, etc)

  • example: Select ‘tabs-quick-grouping’ of “YouTube” - result = all YouTube tabs in the active window are grouped together, unless already grouped manually by the user.
  • implication: This makes it easier for the user to go through a digital declutter before leaving the window.
  1. proposed 2nd phase of implementing the ‘tabs-quick-grouping’ feature:
  • user can type keywords in the advanced-tabs-quick-group feature to quick-group by topic across a variety of websites
  • example: user selects “advanced-tabs-guick-group” - user types in topic windowshopping” - result = all tabs involving shopping are grouped together into a tab called “shopping” (Amazon, Temu, Alibaba, Wish, Etsy, etc.)
