Tab Manager Plus Set to "Open in own tab by default" Set to "Dark mode" Set to "Vertical view" -- very important

You can live search your tab titles to select them

You can open all selected tabs in their own window

You can close selected tabs

You can "discard" tab contents (different from close, the tab is there but content is gone)

You can highlight/select duplicate tabs

You can hide not selected tabs

You can pin selected tabs (unfortunately, they still only appear on the one window they are pinned to, they just get pinned to the left of the tab bar)

You can drag and drop selected tabs to another window of your choice, both the representation of that window in the TMP tab, but also into the other firefox window itself. That means, drag and drop from here, is the same as pulling out a tab out of a normal firefox window !

Cannot search text inside of tabs, especially not sleeping tabs

Sometimes I press the TMP button and I just get a bluegreen screen, doesn't work until I close many windows and tabs

I would prefer real dark mode with my preferred colours

I would like to easily drop&close tabs into bookmark folders reliably !

Uh, this video demonstrates amiably why I don't need this addon, I think. ๐Ÿ˜…

I mean sure, if you're someone who has hundreds and hundreds of tabs open, maybe. I would argue that's trying to patch over the symptoms instead of curing the illness, but it would serve as a good stopgap solution.

Currently sitting at 1 pinned + 4 open tabs. ๐Ÿ˜€

currently have 1225 open. "Drowning deep in my sea of loathing"

That's right. The key is to keep adding monitors, so you can have 5 tabs on each

You would think so but, no

well, maybe if I install these two in the corners ...

I go through over 5000 tabs per day. I need extremely efficient management tools to not get overwhelmed.

Tab Manager Plus is great, but I wish it was much more powerful.

Searching text in all tabs, search by image recognition in all image in all tabs, sort tabs by topic of discussion and group windows by topic.

And also the bookmark manager, is basically unusable in its current state, basically abandoned since 2013.

Not to speak of all the add-on I need to keep going -> https://pastebin.com/gYFtB2cY

And when, exactly, do you do anything useful? :/

Given 10 seconds for a tab that's more than half a day already. I call bs

so so many hundreds of aliexpress, amazon, ebay tabs to find "the one"

What do you do for a living that you need so many tabs and monitors?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago
