Same for me with Chrome on Android. This forced tab grouping is totally killing my workflow.

I switched from chrome to firefox on Android for this reason.

It is behaviour that has earned many recent one star reviews.

You can still disable this via some chrome://flags tweaking

2 column tabs sadly no more...

Why they think this is better UX is beyond me

Yep, it's still possible but they are disabling these flags one by one.

I don't get it, why they force the grouping instead of making it optional. Without tweaking it's impossible to just open a link in another tab.

I'm starting to see the benefit in it, in that I will use it less and get life time back
