- Rated 4 out of 5by pwrsurge, 23 days agoVery useful addon when you reguarly have lots of tabs opened. Only major issue is poor search peformance as one gets done on every keystroke. This means that a search gets done after entering every single character which is useless.
This can be fixed with the following simple change to popup.js in order to only search when the string is 3 characters or longer.
On line 665 of popup.js:
Change:
if (!this.shouldSearch(query)) {
to:
if (!this.shouldSearch(query) || query.trim().length < 3) {
Hopefully the above fix can be implemented in a future add-on version. A user configuration option could also be added to specify the minimum length instead of having it hardcoded to 3. - Rated 5 out of 5by reid, 10 months agoFor anyone having an issue with the scrollbar covering the close button, add this to its css:
.item {
margin-right: 18px;
} - Rated 1 out of 5by circcc, a year agoUnlike the original, the ported version is sometimes in the wrong order of recent opening.

The only issue I have is a bug where the "close tab" icon is obscured by the scrollbar. You can see this in the screenshots. This behavior was tested on Windows 10 and Windows 11. - Rated 5 out of 5by hallou89, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Shih, 5 years agoThis is great! Really appreciate someone ported it. Can the author also share the source code so I may be able to help fix bugs? Right now, searching while no matches does not work well.
Not sure how to reply so I am editing my comment here. Thank you for the quick response. What I meant is actually the source repository like git repository so I can send the pull request and share the fix with people.Developer response
posted 5 years agoSource code is right in the addon itself. Just download the addon (eg, right-click on the download/install button and click "save link as"); the file is just a zip file, you can change the .xpi extension to .zip if you like. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15299154, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Bhavanishankar, 5 years agoAll day, I have been trying out many addons like tree style tab, all tabs helper, tab search, Tip tab, tab manager v2, etc, etc. Each of these have at least one issue, against my liking:
Tree style tab: No search option
All Tabs Helper: No keyboard navigation. Moreover needs the highest level permission to access all the info you browse.
Tab manager v2: overrides my ctrl+t option, and there is no way to change shortcut.
Tip Tab: Nice one with visuals. But requires highest level permission.
All of these are quite slow even on the fastest mac.
I came across this little addon, which has everything anyone would want in a tab listing and quick navigation. It's extremely fast. It searches the bookmarks as well, in case the page is not open.
Excellent add-on. This should be the best easily. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14667286, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14646809, 6 years agoThat's right. I switched from Chrome to Firefox too and this addon was the thing I missed the most about Chrome. Many thanks!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14387605, 6 years agoAlmost switched back to Chrome because of this extension (which at the time was only available in chrome). Essential is the best way to describe this.
