Move tabs between windows via the context menu.

Tab Mover Add-on for Firefox

Tab Mover is a convenient Firefox add-on designed to simplify the process of moving tabs between windows using the context menu. With this tool, you can swiftly relocate tabs from one normal window to another, transfer them between incognito windows, or even move tabs from normal to incognito mode.

Since direct tab movement from incognito to a normal window is not allowed, Tab Mover provides an optional feature to close the incognito tab and reopen its URL in a normal window. This makes managing your tabs easier and enhances your overall browsing experience. Whether you want to keep your workspace organized or switch between private and regular browsing seamlessly, Tab Mover is your go-to solution.

I HAVE 27 FF WINDOWS across 18 Virtual Desktops and this works almost perfectly. It's always reliable. Just a couple of issues to watch: 1) if you select the top tab in a nest, the entire nest will be moved. 2) The "move to" context window lists all 27 windows, but the list order is "as created" and tough-lucksky trying to find your window. So Guido - that's one feature update that would be worthy of a revisit. THANKS.
