Enable native vertical tabs. This can be done in one of the following ways:

• Right-click on the free space of the toolbar or tab-bar and click on the "Turn on Vertical Tabs".
• Open about:config and enable these settings: sidebar.revamp, sidebar.verticalTabs.

Then resize the native sidebar (with the vertical tabs) to its minimum.

Optionally, you can round the corner of the web page area by enabling sidebar.revamp.round-content-area in about:config.

This will save vertical space, but the native tabs will still be showed and Firefox's sidebar header will take some space from Sidebery.

You can also try to hide vertical native tabs and sidebar: Right-click on the free space of the native sidebar, then in the "Sidebar settings" section enable "Vertical tabs" and "Hide tabs and sidebar" settings, then open Sidebery. But due to a Firefox bug this setting might be ignored on the next browser start or on the opening a new window.

• Learn how to comment/uncomment parts of your CSS.

• Enable toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets in about:config.

• In 'Profile Directory' (Firefox Menu > Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory) create folder chrome with file userChrome.css.

• Paste, edit (to your needs) and save this code in userChrome.css file:

  /**
  * Hide sidebar-panel-header (sidebar.revamp: true)
  */
  #sidebar-panel-header {
    display: none;
  }
  
  /**
  * Dynamic styles
  *
  * Choose when styles below will be activated (comment/uncomment line)
  * - When Sidebery set title preface "."
  * - When Sidebery sidebar is active
  */
  #main-window[titlepreface="."] {
  /* #main-window:has(#sidebar-box[sidebarcommand="_3c078156-979c-498b-8990-85f7987dd929_-sidebar-action"][checked="true"]) { */
  
    /* Hide horizontal native tabs toolbar */
    #TabsToolbar > * {
      display: none !important;
    }
  
    /* Hide top window border */
    #nav-bar {
      border-color: transparent !important;
    }
  
    /* Hide new Firefox sidebar, restyle addon's sidebar */
    #sidebar-main, #sidebar-container, #sidebar-launcher-splitter {
      display: none !important;
    }
    #sidebar-box {
      padding: 0 !important;
    }
    #sidebar-box #sidebar {
      box-shadow: none !important;
      border: none !important;
      outline: none !important;
      border-radius: 0 !important;
    }
    #sidebar-splitter {
      --splitter-width: 3px !important;
      min-width: var(--splitter-width) !important;
      width: var(--splitter-width) !important;
      padding: 0 !important;
      margin: 0 calc(-1*var(--splitter-width) + 1px) 0 0 !important;
      border: 0 !important;
      opacity: 0 !important;
    }
  
    /* Update background color of the #browser area (it's visible near the
    rounded corner of the web page) so it blends with sidebery color with 
    vertical nav-bar. */
    /* #browser {
      background-color: var(--lwt-accent-color) !important;
      background-image: none !important;
    } */
  
    /* Hide sidebar header (sidebar.revamp: false) */
    #sidebar-header {
      display: none !important;
    }
  
    /* Uncomment the block below to show window buttons in Firefox nav-bar 
    (maybe, I didn't test it on non-linux-tiled-wm env) */
    /* #nav-bar > .titlebar-buttonbox-container,
    #nav-bar > .titlebar-buttonbox-container > .titlebar-buttonbox {
      display: flex !important;
    } */
  
    /* Uncomment one of the lines below if you need space near window buttons */
    /* #nav-bar > .titlebar-spacer[type="pre-tabs"] { display: flex !important; } */
    /* #nav-bar > .titlebar-spacer[type="post-tabs"] { display: flex !important; } */
  }
  

• Restart the browser

• Optionally, try to turn on/off native vertical tabs to know how it changes the color of the browser toolbar.

Result:

• Optionally, add some bells and whistles (add to Sidebery styles editor):

  Rounded corner for vertical nav bar

  /* Do not apply the border from Firefox theme */
  .Notifications + .main-box .central-box {
    height: calc(100% - var(--general-margin));
    margin-top: var(--general-margin);
  }
  .NavigationBar {
    box-shadow: none;
  }
  .NavigationBar.-vert {
    padding: var(--nav-btn-margin) 0 0
  }
  #root[data-pinned-tabs-position="left"]:not([data-nav-layout="horizontal"]) .PinnedTabsBar,
  #root[data-pinned-tabs-position="right"]:not([data-nav-layout="horizontal"]) .PinnedTabsBar {
    padding: var(--general-margin) 0 calc(var(--tabs-margin) * 2);
  }
  #root[data-pinned-tabs-position="left"][data-nav-layout="left"][data-drag="true"] .PinnedTabsBar,
  #root[data-pinned-tabs-position="right"][data-nav-layout="right"][data-drag="true"] .PinnedTabsBar {
    padding: var(--general-margin) 0 16px
  }
  
  /* Rounded transition between Sidebery nav-bar and Firefox toolbar */
  .main-box {
    --rounding: calc(var(--general-border-radius) + var(--general-margin));
  }
  #root[data-nav-layout="left"] .main-box:before {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: var(--nav-btn-width);
    width: var(--rounding);
    height: var(--rounding);
    z-index: 1000;
    pointer-events: none;
    background-image: radial-gradient(
      circle at 100% 100%,
      #00000000,
      #00000000 var(--rounding),
      var(--toolbar-bg) calc(var(--rounding) + 0.5px),
      var(--toolbar-bg)
    );
  }
  

  
  Full width pinned tabs

  #root.root {--tabs-pinned-height: 32px;}
  #root.root {--tabs-pinned-width: 36px;}
  
  #root.root .PinnedTabsBar .tab-wrapper {
    width: auto;
    flex-grow: 1;
  }
  #root.root .PinnedTabsBar .tab-wrapper .Tab {
    --tabs-activated-shadow: inset 0 0 0 1px #fff2;
    --tabs-activated-bg: #fff2;
    width: 100%;
    min-width: var(--tabs-pinned-width);
  }
  #root.root .PinnedTabsBar .tab-wrapper .Tab .body {
    --tabs-normal-bg: #ffffff0f;
  }
  #root.root .PinnedTabsBar .tab-wrapper .Tab[data-discarded="true"] .body {
    --tabs-normal-bg: #ffffff06;
  }
  

  
  
  

  That's basically all custom styles I use myself. I'll try to keep this userChrome snippet updated (relative to the beta version of Firefox).
