Tab Stash by Josh Berry
Review by GenericUser
Rated 4 out of 5
by GenericUser, 7 months agoA bit buggy and slows down my browser (due to storing tabs as bookmarks but not fully closing the tab) turning the extension off and on fixes the browser. (turning off and on the extension also results in a hundred or so tabs of bookmarks being reopened but holding ctrl + w fixes that quick issue) (I think this may just be due to a limitation of the browser or some kind of bug)

posted 7 months agoTab Stash uses Firefox's built-in tab-hiding feature to hide stashed tabs instead of closing them entirely. This allows the tab state to be preserved (vs. closing the tab, which loses all the state). If you accumulate too many hidden tabs, Tab Stash will unload them to make sure your browser doesn't slow down.
If you find this bothersome, you can change Tab Stash's settings so that tabs are entirely closed instead of hidden. There is also a "middle ground" option to unload hidden tabs immediately, so they remain open but don't use any resources.
Hope this helps!
