Enable new sidebar on another device?
Recently a new sidebar appeared on Firefox on my desktop. I actually really liked the change because I have wanted to move my tabs to the side for a while. I had tree style tabs installed and I was a little annoyed that I couldn't disable the tabs on the top bar. But now I can!
My laptop however does not have the new sidebar yet and when I look for updates it says there aren't any. My laptop has limited screen space and I much prefer to have this new ui choice but I can't enable it. I understand that they probably update new designs in batches to test the waters but is there a way to get around it and enable it on my laptop too?
I use the same Firefox account for both so it seems a little counterintuitive to have different experiences on different devices on the same account.
Also very much thank you for this change! It's something I've wanted for a while. I also have one little suggestion and that is to have the option for a similar feature to tree style tabs on the sidebar tab layout.

Yes, this is a limited release feature, but you can enable it manually this way:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste sidebar.revamp and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the preference (or click the toggle button toward the end of the row) to switch the value from false to true

Oh and I use the button to open and close the sidebar to save screen space right now but I haven't been able to find a shortcut for it.
