How to detach a tab and make a new window immediately instead of a preview image?
To elaborate, I want to achieve this exact gif .
Currently when I drag on a tab, it only shows the preview image. I want to to drag the tab and make it immediately turn into a new window just like shown in this gif.
This is a problem because when I want to merge a window with another window, I have to minimize the first window (because I can't see the window behind it), then drag them together. This is quite inconvenient.

The way Firefox is designed, you have to release the mouse button to complete the action of tearing the tab off to its own window. This is safer in case you only meant to move the tab along the bar and not create a new window.
I agree that dragging from one window to another in a single step would be preferable but I haven't found a reliable way to do that (at least with maximized windows).
There are extensions that add a right-click context menu command for it, but that involves extra clicks...
