Google is testing scrollable tabs in Chrome (again).

Chrome used to support tab scrolling with an experimental flag, but removed it earlier this year. Now it’s coming back in the latest Canary build for Chrome Desktop. It lets you navigate crowded tab bars using the scroll wheel, gestures, or arrow controls.

Bring some ‘life’ back to your neglected browser tabs.

Developer Charlie Gerard has released a fun Chrome extension that makes digital plants grow over your tabs when you’re not actively looking at them, at a timescale of your choosing. Once a page is more than 5 percent overgrown, you can’t click, select, or drag anything until you clear the vines. [Image: The extension is called “Overgrown,” and lets you clear the vines by using your mouse as a rusty machete, chainsaw, or flamethrower. https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/10/Charlie-Gerard-Overgrown.jpg?quality=90&strip=all]
