- Rated 1 out of 5by luckyfetus, 7 months agoGreat idea! Unfortunately, it doesn't function or work properly as of June 6 2025
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14119405, 10 months agoAll new tabs crash with this extension now. If the add-on won't be updated, there's no point in continuing to use it
- Rated 1 out of 5by KBTidwell, a year agoYeah, apparently abandonware. Will NOT unload pinned tabs at browser startup, and no update since 2022. Three years? Come on!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15037318, a year ago---TO THE DEVELOPER:
CHECK THE 1 STAR REVIEWS, AS IT SEEMS THAT THIS ADDON DOES NOT WORK AS IT SHOULD? - Rated 1 out of 5by Drafer, a year agoIt has to be set every time you start Firefox, a waste of time and NOT WORKS
- Rated 1 out of 5by D. Schaaaf, a year agoDoesn't respect the time set before inactive tabs are to be discarded and just discards tabs after the default 10 minutes.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mephistopheles, a year agoGreat idea, but didn't work for what I wanted it to do (Stop nazibook from refreshing when I didn't tell it to) and the settings menu wasn't exactly clear
- Rated 1 out of 5by Coffee, a year agoEDIT: Two days later, no answer to a simple question, and this extention not working may be interferring with other extentions. "Where is the 'tab action button'?"
Original:
So, I don't really think it's one star, but I'm out of ways to get an answer. I don't see anyother way to contact the dev besides logging into their GitHub page, where the same question was asked by another user last year, with no reply.
In the support documention, it says that you can mouse over the "tab action button" to find out why a tab isn't being discarded. Where is this button? What does it look like?
Please answer; the extention used to work well for me, and now it isn't working and I can't even troubleshoot why. - Rated 1 out of 5by Rexon112, a year ago1 Star. Breaks random websites for no apparent reason, i.e. they don't work anymore at all
- Rated 1 out of 5by BrunoMag, 2 years agoThis extension doesn't work, the unload tabs still occupy the same memory space.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Threshold, 3 years agoTabs with videos being played through the pop-up window get discarded and this even after I have white-listed the domain!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14532424, 3 years agoBroken, whenever a tab is discarded and i click on it it goes back to the "new tab" page as if i just opened a fresh tab, also cant go back to the tab were i was with the "Go back one page" feature (the arrow)
- Rated 1 out of 5by Music, 3 years agoNot working at all since Version 0.6.2. Have to revert to 5.0 to fix as other review mentioned. Once this issue is fixed on current version rating will improve.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17432069, 4 years agoThe exceptions don't work, keeps closing my youtube tabs.
