发布于 6 年前The information on the website was dated, so it has been removed. I have removed all references to the website. Sorry for the confusion. I have updated with more screenshots and descriptions which in themselves give a pretty good introduction on how to use ATH. I have also updated the addon information with a support email link.
I'm sorry your experience with ATH has been unpleasant for you. It does seem like some of your problem with ATH however is that you are looking for something other than what is offered. I am sorry if ATH does not offer the features you were looking for, but I have no intention on offering those things as that is not the scope intended.
The search feature seems to work fine and I have had no other complaints. The __awful__ experience you have moving tabs seems a bit overstated. ATH does move tabs between windows btw, and the instructions for that are now in the screen shots. But I have no intention of cross-window support any more than that.
Yes, "suspending" == "unloading", and more actually. While Chrome "unloading" unloads the web content of a tab, Firefox's implementation not only does that, but reduces the tab to a very basic state requiring about 1/10th the resources. This is why the term "suspending" is a bit more descriptive in Firefox's implementation, however you'll find both terms used interchangeably even in Firefox parlance.
There is a caveat regarding dup (duplicate) tabs: dup tabs are determined when both the title and url are the same. Due to some pages rendering different content based on either internal frequent updates or post data sent by the user, it is possible two tabs listed as dups may have different content. I have also updated the screen shots with this caveat. Although this seems to be the opposite of the issue you are describing.
I have gone over your objections and as far as I can see, ATH does do all that it claims, and without "serious implementation issues". I wonder if this is a case of a user eager to pop off a review rather than giving it time to get familiar with the territory and understand the customs. ATH is after all, a fairly comprehensive tool. I am probably partly to blame in this for not providing a better primer to help the user get acquainted. Hopefully the updated slide show and descriptions will better prepare users in the future.
Thanks for your input and for prompting me to address some of the issues on my end.
