    With a little development, this extension could become the best session manager I've come across.

    Off the bat, I'd say this extension is more for power users with multiple sessions.

    In response to the developer on 4/23: (redacted)

    Response 4/24: People use extensions in ways the developer didn't intend per se, in this case for managing saved sessions. IMO, text-based tab management is superior to thumbnails. Case in point: Session Boss has 3500+ users, TipTab 263.

    Until I find another text-based manager, this is it. For an example of a text-based session manager elegantly handling the relationship between saved and running tabs, Session Buddy (Chrome) allows you to save and close individual sessions and tabs, regardless of whether they're open or not. If a saved tab happens to be open, clicking on its bookmark in the manager will take you to the existing tab. Closing it in the manager will close the open tab.

    Thank you for reading my comments, and I hope you'll consider these features in a future release.

    Thanks for the feedback. Session Boss is set out to work with saved session data and not on the live running tabs, so it doesn't make sense to close the current running tabs on the browser. For working with current running tabs, there's another add-on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tip-tab/, that can do all kinds of things to the current running tabs and windows, including closing them. Cheer.

    Edit1 (to the 2nd response): A saved session is a snapshot of tabs and windows in time. The current state of the running tabs and windows could have been changed completely. There's really no relationship between the two. Even if text based tab navigation is preferred, it would be added to Tip Tab, not to this add-on.

    Edit2 (to the 3rd response): You have a good point. Text-based manager is easier to work with lots of tabs. Icon-based is more flashy. Power users would rather use text-based with denser information overall. There's a TODO item to add tree hierarchy to tabs in Tip Tab, and it can be done in text. Also Tip Tab is still in development, admittedly not actively at the moment, and the next goal is to integrate with the bookmark system to bring the concepts of active windows/tabs and inactive windows/tabs with grouping, along the line of task-oriented or topic-oriented grouping of tabs, may be using the concept of containers or desktops. When I get more time, I'll get back to it.

    It seems to me an exceptional complement and all the functions that the own one implements, would be perfect if at least they worked the buttons of restoration that from their installation do not cause any effect, correct this and if not inform me of which complement or configuration I can have badly in the If it interferes, I would love to use its extension but if I do not see a solution I will eliminate it. Thanks in advance

    FF v68.01 x64 - SB v2.11.2
    This addon saves the current tabs periodically like the old Session Manager.

    This version still has problems, as the restored tabs get messed up.
    Luckly the pinned tabs still start unloaded, despite what the changelog says.

    --

    old reviews:

    FF v67.0 x64 - SB v2.11.1
    This version seemed to work correctly, but instead it has the old problem of some sessions restoring only a blank tab (expecially with multiple windows).

    FF v60.6 ESR x64 - SB v2.2
    This addon seems to work, but it restores tabs in a reversed order, which is quite annoying.

    FF v66 x64 - SB v2.10
    All seemed to work well, until a few minutes ago, when I lost all tabs.
    The old correct sessions appear in SB, but if I restore them I only get an empty tab..

    Is the restoring in reversed order with the Session Boss 2.2? Can you try it on the latest version 2.10? Thanks.

    Edit: I believe the bug was caused by missing containers in the new browser. The session restore wasn't able to cope with undefined containers that its tabs were using. Please try out the new version 2.11. The new version fixes the bug and will ignore the missing container and restore the tabs in the default browser container.

    Container migration across machines is a problem now because Firefox's container id is not portable across machines (across profiles). There's no API from Firefox to set the container id of a container; it's assigned sequentially by Firefox as a first come first set process. Containers need to be re-created manually and the tabs need to be assigned to the containers by hand in the new broswer. In future release, Session Boss will attempt to make container migration less painful with container restoration and batch tab assignment to containers.

    Just installed and so far it is perfect!

    Was using Tab Session Manager but needed savings and backups in real time.

    Kudos!

    Edit:
    - Discovered that sometimes, despite all tabs being there, some won't load when clicked.
    - Also, would be nice to be able to change the 'save' location and choose another drive than 'C'.

    sometimes it saves wrong URL

    It's better than having nothing at all. And the interface is nice. But the execution lacks. I've used this for a few months now and as others have said, when it restores my tabs it appears to pull up the correct tab, but then when I click on the tab and it actually loads, it often (not always) takes me to another previously used URL. So I don't feel like I can trust it.

    I like this addon, but I can not keep using it at the current state.
    When I open existing or new tabs o after restoring a session, sometimes they are replaced with the contents of any other open tab in the session. It seems like the lazy loading feature has problem relating tab position to URL to load. If this is solved this will be my session manager.
    Thanks for your great work

    I can't delete sessions I'm not interested in keeping. Although I see the menu entry "Delete session" this is disabled, so pressing it doesn't help and I'm accumulating a lot of useless sessions that I would like to delete.

    Otherwise, the interface could be improved and better adapted to FF's visual style, but in general it works well and is a relief after the cessation of the old pre-Quantum "Session Manager". Thank you for your work.

    I really like the tab selectivity and sorting functions built into the new "Session Boss" extension!

    Is it possible to import sessions created by other extensions (e.g., Tab Session Manager, Session Manager, MySessions)? I'd really like to use only one of these, and have all their sessions consolidated--especially with the flexible functionality of "Session Manager".

    Unless there's a standard for session data exchange, it's unlikely to import from other apps' internal data files. There is a site https://www.jeffersonscher.com/res/scrounger.html to extract links from the old sessions files.
