Tab Stash by Josh Berry
Review by Firefox user 13458261
Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 13458261, 6 years agoThe extension simple and beautiful. And works well. Much better than OneTab. But, please give an option to close tabs instead of making the tabs hidden. I prefer them closed instead of hidden, something OneTab did.
Thank you!
Edit: Thanks for the update! That's exactly what I wanted!

One thing to note about hidden tabs: Tab Stash monitors the total number of tabs in your browser, and tells Firefox to stop/unload hidden tabs you haven't touched in a while. The more tabs you have (hidden or otherwise), the more aggressive this unloading behavior becomes. So you shouldn't have to worry about memory usage or performance—Tab Stash will clean up after itself. :)
That said, I definitely agree there is no "one size fits all" approach. Some may prefer to keep all their hidden tabs indefinitely, while others (yourself included) may not want hidden tabs at all. I want to revisit this for a future release, and I'll be sure to keep your feedback in mind!
