- Rated 2 out of 5by Redbeard, 5 years agoIt worked for a few hours, then it spontaneously wiped all its own settings and it now seems unable to save any new ones, so the addon no longer functions. The "Factory Reset" button doesn't work either (yes I'm dbl-clicking it).
Debugging notwithstanding, there's not much I can do but remove it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Sytrus, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13553517, 5 years agoThis is a great extension that does its job well - keep open tabs out of memory after a period of time. It behaves so well that sometimes I'm frustrated by not being able to search thru my "discarded" open tabs to find a tab for resurrection.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to search for all tabs that are open, regardless if "discarded" or not in Firefox?
In Chrome you can use `chrome://inspect/#pages` to list all the tabs that are opened. I can't find similar function in Firefox for that. - Rated 5 out of 5by fantom, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by filobus, 5 years agoGreat! Very usefuly
A suggestion for a new feature: option to keep tabs is one more click away, it's a long process, it would be useful to have a button, and some way to suspend/unuspend/keep tabs by group (for example selecting multiple tabs at once or based on multi-account container) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14879905, 5 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Buster Blue, 5 years agoGood for saving resources without needing to close tabs completely. However There seems to be a bug with the way the "Discard All Other Tabs" function works.
It appears to respect the whitelist and blacklist features of the addon like auto-discarding does. I suspect that this isn't the intended behavior, because discarding tabs using "Discard Tab" ignores the lists. This is what I expected with "Discard All Other tabs" because it's being done manually just like "Discard Tab" is. Because it doesn't ignore them, I initially thought that this function just didn't work at all.
If it is the intended behavior for "Discard Tab" to ignore the lists but "Discard All Other Tabs" to respect them, it should be more clear about that. I'd also like the option for it to ignore the lists just like "Discard Tab" does, since I feel like this makes more sense, and is more useful.
The only other problem I have is that putting a discarded tab into focus automatically reloads the tab. This is pretty inconvenient and I'd much rather have the tab stay discarded until I manually reload it, or something like that. - Rated 4 out of 5by Adonis, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by shark_bloody, 5 years agoI would like to see an option to establish a maximum number of inactive tabs on a per windows basis.
Ex: Maximum of n inactive tabs for any given window.
I find myself having this issue that I left some tabs opened in a random window, and the addon keeps unloading the tabs on the window I'm working on because it exceeds the maximum I have setted. - Rated 5 out of 5by shrisourav, 5 years ago
