sɣur White_Oz, 6 tahun yang lepasThank you Afnan Khan, and good people at Mozilla.
I have not tested this extension yet because I still mainly use a version older than FF57("the Great Regression"), but give it 5 for encouragement. Every user of FF that uses more than 10 tabs in a session, needs an "auto unload tabs" functionality, like we need air.
After I have searched(2018) and read about/viewed screen shots (videos), of extensions that are able to unload(auto) tabs, I find this one to be the closest with the extension:"Auto Unload Tab by def00111" which does not work on FF after v56, but does a superb job on FF before 57, of unloading(auto too) tabs from multiple groups without using much CPU.
Hopefully Afnan Khan did not quit maintaining(or improving) this much needed add-on.
About the loosing of favicons of tabs it seems to be a bug of Firefox ("Most notably, tabs may loose their icons or display as loading. Fixing that is Mozillas job")...see more here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1450382

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 18928813, 17 hari yang lepasI haven't tried a lot of tab unloader add-ons but from the ones i used this is by far the best, the most options, easier to see what tabs is unloaded, and a style that fits nicely into firefox if that is what you want ;)
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Laibpeace, 5 bulan yang lepasgreat add-on to lighten firefox and speed it up
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 13197014, 2 tahun yang lepasTab Unloader working just fine with all previous versions of Firefox up to 118 (on Arch Linux).
Usefull settings and default settings, ie: time to auto-unload; visually shows which tabs are un/loaded; don't unload tab that's playing Audio...
Also works fine with Tree Style Tab. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur masatami, 2 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur rjt, 2 tahun yang lepasBefore opening Firefox, is there some way to tell Firefox to tell "Tab Unloader" to open all tabs unloaded?
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Ahmed, 3 tahun yang lepasStill works. I actually use this only for the option to load a whole bookmark folder unloaded.
Would be great if there were shortcuts like ALT + Click on a link to open it in the background. Context menu item to open link in background unloaded also lacks a keyboard shortcut. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur jamvaru, 3 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur ded-doed, 3 tahun yang lepasMore useful than Auto Tab Discard for me, because Tab Unloader correctly counts the time before automatic tab unloading from the moment the tab was last active / in the foreground before the user switched to a different tab. Auto Tab Discard, in my testing, counts the time since the tab was first opened or last loaded back from the unloaded state, which is quite inconvenient.
- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur Fashtas, 4 tahun yang lepasHas some issues with unloaded tabs where either it or Firefox "loses" the URL belonging to the tab so the tab can never be reloaded.
Seems to happen between 1/2 and 3/4 of my unloaded tabs (Honestly the ability to reload a tab happens very infrequently, generally an unloaded tab is gone forever) so makes it a non-functional add-on for me - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 16677902, 4 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Vitalii Makarchenkov, 4 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Haven667, 4 tahun yang lepasFor me the best extension of its kind. It has all the features I need, but without any bloat. Simple and clear options dialog. An option to "bypass the cache on restore", like the old "Auto Unload Tab" extension (pre-Quantum), would be really nice. At the moment I use the extension "Update Discarded Tab On Select" for this.
- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur PERCE-NEIGE, 4 tahun yang lepasThere are options to "unload this tab" "unload other tabs" etc, but no reload, so I have no idea how to get back the tabs. The UI is not handy at all. I will use another addon of the same kind with a better UI,, like a tabs list for instance, or even a categorization or tagging of several tabs lists.
- Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 15911666, 5 tahun yang lepasDoesn't automatically reload tabs.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14643647, 5 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur Matt GD, 5 tahun yang lepasSome of my Bookmarks now have the discarded favicon permanently. I tried to remove, and re-add the Bookmarks, but it continues to display the faded favicons with the dot. That's annoying and needs to be fixed
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 11233054, 5 tahun yang lepasHe estado haciendo pruebas y ahora mismo funciona mejor que UnloadTabs, además tiene más opciones y un botón para no tener que dar clic derecho sobre las pestañas cada vez que quieras descargarlas.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur PConsole Otaku, 5 tahun yang lepasThis is the only one that work perfectly as a tab hibernator on new Firefox

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 12126833, 6 tahun yang lepas
- Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur R.I.P. IE, 6 tahun yang lepasThe Good:
- seems to be doing its job
(though FF always still manages to use many 100's of MB and multiple instances of FF
for - I think - installed add-ons, Gmail and YT etc...but prob. Mozilla's fault)
- good extra features,
like only whitelist a particular tab or its whole domain name
The Bad:
- Youtube tabs that are reloaded,
are loading the mobile ("m.youtube[...]") version.
Really annoying!
The Ugly:
- nothing important really.
Maybe the icon. On/off button prob. not the best choice. - Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Marsu42, 6 tahun yang lepasThis was the lifesaver for my laptop with only 2GB ram. I switched to "Auto Tab Discard" because it has an "... only if number of inactive tabs exceeds [ ]" option. Tab Unlader has the better ui and the better icon though, so I hope competion will bring further improvements. More memory-awareness would be nice, i.e. discard tabs if FF memory consumption exceeds [ ].
