Giving Chrome a go? Why would I? Zen has everything I need, plus Chrome does not have an ad-blocker. I also sometimes need WebUSB and such things, but well, then I'll use chrome once for that and be done with it.

I strongly suggest you nuke Chrome every time you are done using it.

Well then you are already doing what I suggested.

I'm not saying adopt Chrome as your main browser, I'm saying if Chrome alone has unique feature you think you might need, try it there. For example that allowed me to discover https://github.com/ArcaneNibble/awawausb

Consequently if you are curious about vertical tabs, do try it, even in a container, e.g. Webtop, if you want to be extra safe. I'm not suggesting to switch.
