Recensioni per Session Sync
Session Sync di Gabriel Ivanica
Recensione di PeaceByJesus.net
Valutata 4 su 5
di PeaceByJesus.net, 2 anni faSorry: I had stated that "there is no option to save a session" since I did not see one, or read that this was to be found via mouse hover over a heart icon (like "favorites"). I thought it would be in text, and maybe via right click. As a long time user of the legacy Session Manager I also assumed that this add on would auto save sessions depending on how often you wanted, and where you wanted. And restore local web pages as well.
However, the untitled heart icon does work to save that session as a bookmark, which is good though where the bookmark is saved is not an option.
And I also see via the tutorial (moz-extension://cf54e725-638a-4074-b4ae-b519e7d0f380/data/home/home.html) that Gabriel Ivanica has put a lot of work into this add on and that there are some options!
So thanks for this needed good add on, and it works for me even while using the Izheil Multi-row tabs patch.

pubblicato il 2 anni faWhat do you mean by no option to save sessions?
There's a red heart icon that has a tooltip with "Save Session".
Auto-save is not saving in bookmarks, only manual saving will do so because otherwise I would create thousands of almost useless bookmarks for users.
The addon should work as intended, but in case some other addon creates some weird incompatibility it might not, but that's something I can't fix or change. Though, there should clearly be no issues to save a certain session.

- Valutata 2 su 5di Utente Firefox 14309829, un anno faI wish they would add firefox container support. I have tabs stored that are assigned to specific containers, which go haywire when restored in a new session because they get assigned to "no container" and go on a loop

- Valutata 5 su 5di Mostly Harmless, un anno faAlthough not updated for some time, this add-on has consistently worked for me for over 5 years. It's been my go-to research tool when using Firefox. Bookmarks are OK but fall short when trying to do some concerted research but this session manager is fantastic. It's never failed me and syncs easily between devices using Mozilla Sync. Thanks to the dev for this gem and hopefully it stays updated as Firefox progresses.

- Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 14684093, un anno faThis addon does what firefox sync should do. And it does even more. You can setup collections of links. Fortunately firefox sync does sync bookmarks reliably. But it fails in syncing tabs in a reliable way. Here session sync comes in as a convenient workaround.

pubblicato il un anno faPlease do not use Session Sync for auto history saving. It's not something that it's guaranteed and it's even in the description of the addon on the first line with bold. It's just a feature that is most of good enough but not something that is perfect.
THIS ADDON IS NOT INTENDED FOR AUTO-SAVING OF SESSIONS!
As for saving sessions manually, those sessions are stored into bookmarks so it should be impossible to lose them unless the whole Firefox profile is broken in which case is not the addon fault. - Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 17989927, un anno faI use Session Sync since 3 years now and it worked super for me, fast, reliable and neat to use. After a recent computer breakdown, at the computer store they made a new operating system installation and a minor recovery of my data. Mr.Ivanica helped me providing precious information and all the support in order to get the extension back at work again with all my sessions 100% restored.
- Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 17422724, 2 anni faExtremely useful addon. I have used this for at least 3 years.
- Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 17698144, 2 anni faGreat add-on! Pinned tabs are saved, but not restored as pinned in Firefox on Linux. It would be fantastic to be able to find duplicate tabs also! Cheers!

- Valutata 5 su 5di Shodaime, 2 anni faGreat add-on. I wish there are options to change the colour or theme of the interface. Something even basic, like; light, grey and dark.

- Valutata 5 su 5di asdasd asdasasd, 2 anni faExcellent!!! very few plugins are as useful as this one. I like to have many tabs open and this tool allows me to manage them in a spectacular way. Thank you very much!!!
I hope that in the future it will continue to be updated, even if they don't add more features, it should be incorporated by Firefox natively. - Valutata 2 su 5di dafFDasd, 2 anni faOK, so I have updated the review:
Lists currently open windows and tabs, clicking switches to clicked tab. But no tab delete nor search in tabs functionality. Max Pop up window size is too small. It needs to be a full page in new tab.
Does not auto save sessions.
UPDATE: The „Tab View” button opens a new page instead of a pop up. I'd rename it to something more intuitive (maybe view everything in new tab). It is possible to search the tabs there using Ctrl+g.
But despite the entry being highlighted after exiting from the search, the Enter key does not activate the tab.
Also Ctrl+Shift+V is a bad choice of hotkey. It is already universally reserved and used as „Paste without formatting”. I'd recommend opening in new tab view by default instead.
UPDATE 2: The hotkey can be changed. But the Settings popup closes every damn time I set something. It requires to reopen the stupid main pop up, then the settings pop up again and scroll down again to the last place.
Additionally the developer has not responded to the lack of close current tab/window functionality. This is the most important feature remaining.
Instead of practical functionality, this add-on includes wasteful animations without option to turn them off. They should be off by default or removed completely. It is an (annoying) anti-feature to waste time staring at unnecessary delays in workflow.Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 2 anni faHi. I understand that you would expect something from an addon but the description states clearly that the addon is not intended for Auto-Saving of session. At the same time popup size is simply limited by Firefox, that's the maximum any developer can do, simply I can't make it bigger than that because that's and API limitation (nobody knows why just Firefox stupid decisions).
Regarding the full-page or new-tab -> those options are already available
Regarding search in tabs: yeah.. sorry that's a feature that would've been nice but was not able to implement it.
Auto-Save: There is some autosave implemented but not a full-featured like maybe other addons might have, but the whole purpose of the addon is to manually save what you need. - Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 17455306, 3 anni fa
- Valutata 5 su 5di SiteBuilderOne, 3 anni faExcellent add-on, highly intuitive.
The ability to dock this in to native FireFox Sidebar would be awesome (Simple Tab Groups has this option). Currently using Tab View working great - thanks!!! - Valutata 3 su 5di Rei, 3 anni fa
- Valutata 1 su 5di kcufuoyeid, 3 anni faIf you have hundreds of tabs autosave feature will use high IO/ disk writing, even while Firefox is IDLE. I mean no user activity, not a single website opened or active, no changes happening. On fresh profile it's negligle. My main profile its hitting up to 36mb every 10 seconds. Given that I leave Firefox running 24/7. This is an SSD killer. For the record I have thousands of bookmarks and hundreds of tabs opened but they are inactive and unloaded. I recently updated Firefox to 100 and have Firefox running in Sandboxie. A workaround for this is to disable the 'autosave' option or change it to a high value like 600seconds (10 minutes). The default setting is absurdly low 15 seconds. I personally uninstalled as I rarely used this addon.

pubblicato il 3 anni faHi. I'm sorry that you consider this a bad experience but please understand that your context is way outside of a normal user situation. The addon just tries to save the data into storage and I have no way of configuring how and where that storage goes, it's what the API provides. As regarding the configuration, you have the option to not use the saving at all (disable) or you have the option to change the interval of the saves, there is not really anything left to do, and the timing was set to 15 seconds because most users have a few tabs opened and saving them will not require substantial IO or storage. In your case yes it does not makes sense but that's why you have the options to change. The storage space is just made up of the URL and title of the addon and the icon of the site nothing more, so there's no real overhead that I create other than what it is required for a session.
Please also not that the addon description clearly states that "THIS ADDON IS NOT INTENDED FOR AUTO-SAVING OF SESSIONS!".
Having this in mind, giving a 1 star rating to something that is not intended for your own purposes and in that context of having hundreds of tabs it's a little bit excessive.
