Rated 2 out of 5
by bethel95, 6 years agoI've been using TST for about 6 weeks, and it's worked fairly well, but it's got at least two annoying problems.
First, when I open a link on a page and specify that it's to be put into a new tab, TST will occasionally create the new tab in some random location farther down the tab stack (but not as a child of the active tab). Trying to move that new tab back under the active tab is fruitless--it always jumps back to the random location.
Second, whenever I restart FF, TST doesn't retain the tree structure that existed before the restart. The first group is always as it should be, but beginning with the second group, all subsequent groups become child branches of the second group or some other subsequent group. It's a real mess, and it takes me a good 3-4 minutes to manually put things back the way they should be.
Hopefully, all this will go away in time. I should note that I'm running Tab Session Manager, though I don't think the problems started when I installed that (about 4 weeks ago).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Cam, 11 hours agoGreat addon but recent update has overlapping shortcut with default macOS shortcut. shift+option+ left/right arrow key could be used to highlight words of text at a time. Recent update and broken this functionality and a way of disabling these shortcuts should be available.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Sanika Joshi, 17 hours agoIt's a good add-on, but it stops the Option+Shift+Right-/Left-Arrow combination for selecting words from working in the browser on macOS. This is quite bothersome, as this is a very commonly used key-combination.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Evgeny Nikiforov, 18 hours agoGreat extension, using it for 10 years or so already! Thank you <3
The last update has introduced hotkeys, which conflicts with macos default hotkeys (shift + option + arrows = selection of a single word), which is very disturbing - Rated 5 out of 5by dunyu, 18 hours ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by kardian, a day agoJa manche Sachen haben mir früher besser gefallen... aber das liegt auch an Firefox, die Beschränkungen eingeführt haben.
Auf gar keinen Fall würde ich wieder Tabs oben haben wollen bei der Menge die ich geöffnet habe ist es einfach übersichtlicher. Vielen Dank an Piro - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18453743, 5 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by fabung, 16 days agoI really don't understand.
Why does copying (alt+D+enter) a subtab create a new parent tab instead of creating it at the same level?
Please don't update. It gets worse with every update.

Problems in previous versions have been fixed.
Thank you for the quick feedback.
This add-on is one of the best add-ons for Firefox.

This is a really bad update.
The previously intuitive drag/tree creation method has become truly confusing.
01. In the past, if I dragged a tab and put it inside, it created a new subtree, but now I have to drag it on top or bottoem of the tab to create a new subtree. (It’s different every time. What are the rules?)
02. In some cases I can create a subtree of tabs, but in other cases I cannot create a subtree of tabs. It becomes really sensitive when dragging.
03. It is not possible to create a new tree by dragging a child tab that does not have child tabs.
(There's more, but that's all I remember...)
What is the reason for this update??
Instead, it has become really, really confusing.
It would be nice to roll back. At first I thought there was something wrong with Firefox.
The usual tree style tab is 5 stars.
But I'm giving it 1 star because of this update.
2024. 04. 04. - Rated 5 out of 5by Bittertongue, 18 days agoIf you have a particular mental issue like I do where you cannot help but open tabs upon tabs without closing prior tabs a lot of the time, then being too lazy to continuously scroll across horizontally to open up squished shortened tabs to see if you should close them, no matter how much coffee you've consumed and then closing the session for the next day, only to repeat the process contributing to your neverending tab collection, then this add on is for you.
I'm not exaggerating when I say this add on is a lifesaver and should be a feature on all browers by default, tabs are elegantly displayed and you can swiftly deduce what is important for further reading and what is unimportant and close them swiftly, trees also automatically form and categorize further if you've branched off from a particular tab, I've just closed 2000+ tabs I've procrastinated closing for approximately 1 month. - Rated 5 out of 5by CrystalSplitter, 19 days ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by dikunav, a month agoI wanted to use it to have Chrome convenient experience with tab groups (Chrome is better in that, but don't support multiple search engines and other cool functions), but I can use it only on desktop where I don't need tab group really much because I already have list of all tabs when browsing current tab, and can't on Android where I really needed it. Also realization of tab pinning and tab containers is not very convenient. And creating new tab button is (only) on bottom side of page which is not convenient too. Also I always forget about tabs tree and start using native top menu, and tab tree doesn't even (only icon like in chrome mobile groups maybe) copy there.
P.S. Also with 100+ tabs Firefox crashes several time a day, but I'm not sure that's just because tab tree - Rated 5 out of 5by infirms, a month ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17501884, a month ago新機能の「タブを端に貼り付け」が非常に面白い。
気づいたらあったので、なんじゃこりゃ?と思って使ってみたら想像以上に斬新な機能で、思わずレビューを書きに来ました。
「タブをピン留め」機能は、必要なタブを常に手が届くところに置いておく点で便利です。
しかし、ピン留めした時点でツリー構造を失わせてしまうため、本アドオンとは実は相性が悪かった。
それが、「タブを端に貼り付け」だとツリー構造そのままに、指定したタブだけスクロールしても画面内に取り残されるようになります。
これにより、「必要なタブ」にアクセスするピン留め機能に対して、「必要なツリー」へとすぐさまアクセスできるようになり、いわばツリーの途中にしおりを挟むような感覚で扱えるようになります。
たとえば、ある記事から派生するタブをぽこぽこ開いておいて、ふと別のことを別ツリーで始めたりする際、根っこのところの記事のタブを「端に貼り付け」しておけば、元の記事の作業に戻ろうとする際に非常にスムーズにそれを見つけられるでしょう。
ツリーのインデントの深さを保ったままピン留めされるデザインも実に上手く考えられています。
意識せずとも「しおりの階層化」のような整理がなされるため、後から読み解いて探す際に非常に便利です。
大量のタブを開きっぱなしで扱う人間にとって、これは革新的な概念と言わざるを得ません。
それこそタブにツリー機能を持ち込んだ際の発想・発明に匹敵します。いや、脱帽しました。
ユーザーはぜひこの機能を使ってみるべきでしょう。 - Rated 5 out of 5by Lakshya, a month agoI am a coder who is working on a big web project, to organize all my tabs, this extension plays a very big role. I recommend this extension to everyone.
