- Rated 5 out of 5by OliverWolf, a year agoAbsolutely fantastic addon. I'm a tab hoarder and this cut my ram usage from 45GB down to 20GB! Very impressed!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Shade74, a year agoThis add-on works very well for improving performance, is easy to use, and has lots of customization options. However, one feature that it's sorely missing is the ability to view a tab or bring a tab into focus without un-discarding it. This is a major issue for me because I scroll through tabs to navigate my browser, so I end up loading a bunch of tabs I don't want to load. If there was an option to only un-discard a tab when I click in the tab instead of when I open it, this would be perfect.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Rikko, a year agoВ целом хорошо.
Из нюансов:
1. Значок 💤 отнимает полезное пространство и не так хорошо сигнализирует как если бы сама иконка сайта становилась серой, как в The Marvellous Suspender, например. Иногда возникает путаница если 💤 эмодзи присутствует в названии сайта.
2. Скорость загрузки выгруженного сайта занимает много немного больше времени, чем ожидаешь и этим раздражает.
3. Большая нагрузка при выгрузке и попытках выгрузки сайтов расширением. С включением данного расширения появляются периодические подвисания системы. - Rated 5 out of 5by pdr, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Fractal-7, a year agoGreat add-on, why is this not integrated into Firefox directly? Pretty sure Chrome is good at suspending tabs intelligently, but FF lately has been hogging CPU on certain idle sites, just freeze their DOM & JS execution.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18593181, a year agoGreat add-on, thank you! Would it be possible to add an option to disable all tabs except the current one? That would be incredibly useful.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mephistopheles, a year agoGreat idea, but didn't work for what I wanted it to do (Stop nazibook from refreshing when I didn't tell it to) and the settings menu wasn't exactly clear

- Rated 5 out of 5by looptit, a year agoExtremely customizable, convenient, and does exactly what you want it to and more. A great extension for saving battery and memory whilst retaining any information you have on these pages and won't put tabs to sleep that have important information on them. Great extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Coffee, 2 years agoEDIT: Two days later, no answer to a simple question, and this extention not working may be interferring with other extentions. "Where is the 'tab action button'?"
Original:
So, I don't really think it's one star, but I'm out of ways to get an answer. I don't see anyother way to contact the dev besides logging into their GitHub page, where the same question was asked by another user last year, with no reply.
In the support documention, it says that you can mouse over the "tab action button" to find out why a tab isn't being discarded. Where is this button? What does it look like?
Please answer; the extention used to work well for me, and now it isn't working and I can't even troubleshoot why. - Rated 3 out of 5by Domojestic, 2 years agoIt seems to work alright, if only lightening the memory load a little bit. The big issue is that it doesn't seem like it's in active development anymore; it's been 5 months since the last commit to the repo, and Firefox-specific version of this extension is a few years old now. It might be best to just ask Mozilla to implement this kind of functionality directly.
