READ THIS FOR TAB URL RECOVERY: It's a pretty fantastic Add-On, exactly what I always had designed in my mind, thinking I'd have to be the one to develop it. But it tends to lose the URL of SOME of the suspended tabs, which makes it extremely difficult to keep using. (I'm running Firefox Quantum 61.0.1 on Win 7). There is a hack/workaround for getting the URLs back though for anyone interested. Just right click on the tab that lost the URL, and click Duplicate, and a properly duplicated tab will appear at the original URL. Also, it seems like this add-on is doing some extra funky stuff with the firefox memory config to help keep the memory low, but whatever the reason it is breaking pages that aren't inactive or suspended. As best I can tell the pages seem to be losing their cached memory states, causing them to need to be reloaded.

    Been a Firefox user since it was an alpha release. I've never written a review for any extension until now. This extension made Firefox on Ubuntu usable for me again. I typically have several tabs opened at all time. After 12 or so, Firefox would become nearly unusable, particularly if any videos began playing in those tabs. Auto Tab Discard has made it to where I can have several dozen tabs open and everything runs fine. To the developer, thank you so much for this.

    One thing I will point out is that the name is a bit misleading - No tabs appear to be discarded, thrown away, or deleted. They are just put in a suspended state and removed from active memory. At one time, I thought Firefox had a feature like this built in however, if that still exists, it no longer works very well. Auto Tab Discard is an absolute must for me now.

    I think the description says it all, but I'll add that the benefits of this addon are immense, and it is amazing to me that it isn't built into the browser. This addon turned my old laptop from unusable to nice to browse on. In addition, as a heavy tabber with hundreds of tabs open, it allows me to run more memory-intensive software on my desktop without closing my browser.

    It appears that the AI-powered tab grouping of Firefox keeps this extension from being effective.
    You need to turn off 'Use AI to suggest tabs and a name for tab groups' in Settings > General.

    The extension discards tabs more than Tab Unloading, a function of Firefox and is more flexible.
    I still needs it.

    Edit: Options work perfectly now, it was problem on my end.

    Useful for my potatoe, but the options do not take effect for me for some reason which would be super helpful otherwise. Thank you. Shall revise the review when I can get that working.

    Good, but firefox now has built-in tab discard/unload feature, so in fact you don't need this anymore.

    Works like it should.
    The settings are a bit complicated.
    I could have the option to have more than one set of criteria, before closing tabs. Eg. closing tabs after 20 min, when having more than 10 open, but also closing tabs after 10 min, when having more than 25 open.

    It works very well and what I like most is that the add-on behavior is very customizable.

    its like marvellous suspender for chromium browsers but works better in every single way (for me). I had a lot of time consuming issues with various suspender versions after the official one died and swapped to firefox a few months ago, this one JUST WORKS! big fan.

    works fine for the most part, but as of a couple days ago youtube tabs won't automatically discard any more when first opened, which is what I mainly use this for. Other than that I've not had any other real problems with this.

    Edit: I originally gave this a three star review for the above issue, but it turns out Auto Tab Discard is interacting with UBlock Origin in a weird way and it's only when UBlock is active that I have this problem. Not really much I can do about it, but also not really the fault of this addon, so I bumped the rating up.
