Tree Style Tab by Piro (piro_or)

by Thomas Leon Highbaugh, 9 months agoIf unnecessary complexity as a concept were condensed into code, it would be this obtuse add-on. People like it for the same reason they like VS Code, it has an ecosystem of easily bolted in plugins to geek out over but they aren't adding very much (honestly most should have just been options bolted into the original project) and if willing to use userchrome.js still (yes it can still easily be done, more easily than porting a *.uc.js script to an add-on with either manifest version. Looking beyond the first Google result will not cause you to develop a fatal illness so maybe try it sometime, Reddit hivemind drones!) the whole functionality of this flying spaghetti monster of code can be accomplished in less than 80 lines of JS. The Floorp fork of Firefox implements (and finally effectively fixed their implementation to be usable) this functionality, is not so garish by default (it naturally integrates into the browser style and needs no extra ugly CSS selectors specific to it, what a concept!) and doesn't turn into the hot mess of TST's bad implementation of tag nesting (God forbid you try to rearrange those tabs with a mouse without becoming enraged, tried on Linux and macOS, fickle and badly implemented trash on both ) and doesn't have the "Tree Style Tabs" pendejo banner at the top with the unnecessary close icon (if they don't want it in the sidebar, they probably will just remove the add-on altogether, duh).
I know the hivemind loves this extension and so I will get some virtue signaling indignant outrage for saying this extension is garbage so the brave outraging voice of the people can feel like part of the smart crowd for 5 nanoseconds... but its garbage.

- Rated 1 out of 5by thingthing, 17 days agoit would be five stars if it didnt totally eat up my ram, it actually burned and finished off two of my laptops.
when i finally could get a new computer i read up online what others experiences were, and yea many people had experienced the wild ram issues too, for which the creator had posted solutions.
so, i tried the "solutions". nope it didnt work, so i didnt wanna burn or harm my new computer and promptly uninstalled. not worth it.
it was truly excellent though for organizing stuff and for my audhd self, but it will very likely come at the cost of your hardware.
and yea it got gradually worse the more tabs i stashed. didnt matter if they were just in folders and "not running" because no yea they still did somehow.
really really really unfortunate!! i hope this is something that will work in the future.
giving a two because it really really was very nice organizing even if it cost me badly in the end...
downloader beware!!!!!
edit: nah fuck this, switching to one star so people more likely can even see the fuckery when they press reviews - Rated 5 out of 5by gsw945, 19 days agoVery good, a lot of tabs can be located faster, the same tabs open pages are also organized together!

- Rated 2 out of 5by Julien, 21 days agoThis extension makes Firefox dreadfully slow. I just removed it and it feels like breathing again.
The tool looked promising, but it really makes web surfing extremely difficult, sometimes impossible: some blogs became simply impossible to show. Also, a lot of swapping occured when using that tool, so I guess it uses way too much memory.
I am back for good to the simple vertical panel Firefox provides. - Rated 5 out of 5by Jan Klass, 21 days agoGreat for managing tabs and tasks and research and group them and…

- Rated 4 out of 5by lennarn, 24 days agoI can't live without it! I only miss it had tab search and a tab counter.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Iceman, 25 days agoThis is probably a great extension for some people, but I couldn't get behind it since I couldn't get rid of my top bar.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Tblue, a month agoI can't live without this add-on. This is an essential Firefox add-on for me. Great job!
Only drawback: It makes it very easy to have too many tabs open. :-) - Rated 5 out of 5by 解体中共救中国, a month ago
