To the developer:
Could you make the favicons dimmer when a tab is discarded? sometimes I forget which tabs are unloaded and end up loading them by mistake.
Is it possible to automatically discard non-active tabs when a certain amount of RAM is being used?
Thanks for the addon. It's a lifesaver. - Rated 5 out of 5by Bunjie, 7 years agoGreatly reduce my Firefox memory usage, and prevent tabs automatically reloading when opening the browser.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13525754, 7 years agoSwitched to this from Tab Suspender. Needed something that would work with the Tree Tab (Kroppy) session export feature. This extension does the job perfectly.
- Rated 3 out of 5by dan0s, 7 years agoI really like this add on, but I've noticed recently that I am losing the URLs of some tabs that have been discarded. I suspect the URLs that are disappearing are tabs that I have not yet switched to but I havent tested this yet.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13754061, 7 years agoIt makes FF usable again - without it FF eats a lot of CPU/Memory if you have many tabs
- Rated 5 out of 5by Andromeda Rabbit, 7 years agoThis does not work with F58 but if you read the description you will know this works with F59, which is currently in alpha. Use F59 if you want this.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13712230, 7 years agoLove it! Much smoother than the non-native extension. One thing though: can you implement sync for settings and exceptions whitelist?
- Rated 5 out of 5by kergoth, 7 years agoGreat addon. It doesn't seem to discard tabs with forms, though, even if I configure it to do so, and even if the forms have no new text input (i.e. any random page with a search box isn't unloaded).
