Firefox 사용자 13856192 님, 7년 전[Update: just noticed that Simple Tab Groups (STG) was updated today - to v2.4.8. This is according to FF\Recent Updates, which also states "Sorry, but there was an error loading the release notes". Might any of these factors be something to do with my total loss of all tabs and groups!?!? Seems I'm having Certificate issues in FF now also. Concidence? Mmh]
OK. In principle this add-on is exactly what's required: and easy way to switch between groups of tabs.
By this I mean it should be like a "bookmarking plus" process, whereby a group of tabs is opened, new tabs become part of that group, and all tabs are auto-saved immediately as such. In this way, the tab "Group" is kind of similar in concept to a bookmark "Folder" except the latter is wholly maintained manually (time consuming, error prone, but safe!).
Managing tabs in groups (Moving etc.) is then required, as is naming the groups. This is achieved for the most part (but could be a bit more streamlined re the deepening menus!?).
This system is good, and users - including me - are becoming highly reliant on this add-on for everyday use. Great!
But when a user looses 100's of tabs that were in numerous groups (yep - like me!), it means there's something fundamentally wrong with the design.
I am aware of the Firefox bugs mentioned in various places, but this add-on needs a solid, fully-tested means of automatically backing up groups of tabs. In my case, Win10 glitched and put apps in a semi-disabled state, so MS have caused this, but still...
Having no obvious means to recover tabs is a REAL pain. I do have a manual backup of 2-3 weeks ago, but that's way out of date even after 1 hour of serious browsing, working, researching etc. etc.).
IMO, I don't see the need for 'live' or always open tabs when switching groups. Keep it simple I say. I group tabs (or did before it all went awol) by 'project' and by 'work mode' (e.g. "MX5 rebuild" and "Web Training"
etc.)
So my advice is to set a clear requirement spec and stick to it! Get it working and really reliable (users will help!!). Then... see what users want. A lot of good work has gone into this Addon and it's potentially brilliant, but it's popularity will turn to hatred with no crash recovery options. Crashes happen (MS!) and are OK actually (what!?!) as long as they're not too often (a sad state of current day software running under Windows, but that's modern life for ya!).
I hope the developer can assist me (and others!) and I can recover my groups, but otherwise I can't afford another "total loss" and will have to ditch this add-on :(

Please, update Firefox to latest version v61 and after that update addon to STG v3.0 (not experimental). In this version I implement hide tabs api, switch between groups and not close tabs

More and more often, large numbers of tabs would vanish; sometimes several groups would lose most of their tabs. I could usually get most of them back from the backups, but the tabs I had added within the last day would not come back. - 5점 만점에 4점Firefox 사용자 19193128 님, 8일 전Fantastic extension. Makes managing tabs and tab groups a breeze. A few issues:
1. The extension makes backups in my download folder, which is not great since I like to keep my downloads folder clean.
2. Does not yet play well with the new in-built tab grouping feature from Firefox. Hoping this will be resolved soon.
3. The black icon color blends in with my black window color, which makes it nearly impossible to see the button.
4. On first install, the existing tabs don't integrate with the extension and need to be manually moved in.
Those aside, It's such a great extension, easily one of my favourites. Thanks! - 5점 만점에 4점HonestReview 님, 12일 전Best Tabs extension.
Would rate 5, but after the latest Firefox update, the tabs that are not in a group, are not visible at the extension, unless you add them to a group.
So, if you open a new ungrouped tab and close out of Firefox, it disappears, since it is hidden and it is not in a group.
Also, when you close out of Firefox, some tabs, sometimes gets ungrouped, and since you cannot see ungrouped tabs anymore, you got to find them from Firefox's drop down menu, since they are hidden. - Recently Firefox added its own tab grouping feature that could synergize really well with this extension, but unfortunately there's a bug:
When you create a Firefox group it also creates group collapse button for it, and when you switch to another STG group, it hides the grouped tabs but not that collapse button.
Hope it gets patched, because it's a bit janky and annoying. - 5점 만점에 4점Firefox 사용자 15983276 님, 23일 전Funktion Top, einfacher Wechsel zwischen Tab-Gruppen und Managen der Tabs. Aber bei Updates schon zweimal die Tab-Gruppen verloren und nun nur noch in der JSON-Sicherung wiederfindbar und nicht importierbar oder so
- In the past week or two I keep losing all my settings for this. I did (belatedly) create a back up .json, however even that, as of today, is not being recognized as valid...
Hoping this is seen and dev, or other users, can offer insight, as this is one of my most valued extensions.
Cheers 🍻

With that being said, I love the add-on and appreciate the QoL improvements it brings to my internet. Can't imagine not having it at this point. - This is THE tab manager I was looking for in Firefox. It took a bit to adjust and I thought I preferred the tab grouping I've used in chromium based browsers. But this is so much cleaner, easier to organize and reason with, and maintain a solid separation of concerns with tab grouping.

- 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 15396077 님, 2달 전Un module vraiment essentiel pour Firefox, un grand merci aux devs !
Ca serait super qu'en complément de la nouvelle MAJ Firefox des "tab groups", les tab groups soient propres à chaque groupe du module. Par exemple, si j'ai un tab groups "réseaux sociaux" dans mon groupe "privé", j'aimerais ne pas le voir dans mon groupe "travail", plutôt que de voir un tab groups vide. - 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 19020526 님, 2달 전
