Why does angelfish use non-standard tabs widgets?

Help

I don’t understand this choice. It look good but it lack of certains native tabs features, mostly the ability to swap the tabs order.

Because there is no standard tab widget. Features like swipe-to-reorder need to be implemented by hand, and noone has done that so far.

It it because it uses Kirigami framework ? From what i’ve seen all KDE apps that don’t use Kirigami and have tabs look like and behave the same.

It’s partly because Angelfish uses QML and Kirigami, but even in QtWidgets-land, there is a surprising amount of inconsistency in the tab behavior: ⚓ T10233 Create a HIG for tab style and behavior
