Tab swallowing not working properly

Hey, finally discovered this project (big thanks for sharing this) as tab dragging in i3 and chromium based browsers has been painful for quite some time (especially when trying to rearrange tabs in the same browser window when inside a tabbed i3 layout with multiple windows).

Just noting that I am aware of the recent chromium bug that caused complete tab dragging breakage in the last few weeks. But it looks already fixed in chromium 102.0.5005.115 based browsers. So I started testing this script with 102.0.5005.115 and also multiple older browser versions before the last breakage. But in all cases I am noticing a problem. When dragging a tab to another window, the dragged window gets switched to floating mode properly, but it cannot be placed in another browser window, it just does not get swallowed when dragged to the new position. This can be seen in the following gif:

In very rare cases (maybe 1%) it randomly gets swallowed in a new position.

So I started testing this with other machines, distros and older browser versions and this issue seems to appear with all versions >= 97.0.4692.71. More specifically 96.0.4664.110 was the last version there the script in this project worked really well (as described in the project README). I used the following method: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/612981 to install older google-chrome versions on a Debian based system.

Am I doing something wrong? Has dragged tab swallowing been working properly for somebody with a chromium based browser >= 97.0.4692.71?

I don't want to include gifs in repository

stopped working again

Hi, not sure when it started back up as I've kind of been avoiding the dragging lately, but the script has stopped working now.

Is there any news and/or any fix?

Thanks.

It doesn't work for me

I am very appreciate for your work cause it is very helpful for me if it would work.
This is my screenshot for i3 config.
I don't know why it does not work.
I hope to have your help.
Thank you!
