What's up everybody 👋
I'm a tab hoarder - I have 2 computers and on both of them I probably have 20 to 30 Chrome tabs open at all times.
Eats around 30-80% of my RAM depending on the machine and sometimes I struggle finding what I'm looking for.
There are tons of extensions that already try to solve this problem. Toby, OneTab, BetterOneTab, The Great Suspender to name a few. Some of them are quite intrusive, e.g. force you to have them as "new tab", just don't have the full functionality I seek (searchbility, hotkeys, etc.), or are way to cluttered for my taste.
So I decided to build one myself. It can currently do the following:
I will also implement an optional "autosupend" feature that unloads inactive tabs (for example after 1 hour of inactivity) from memory. The unloaded tab will still stay in the tab strip and reloads as soon as it is clicked.
Admittedly, this is currently more of a passion project for a few people with a super vague vision to monetize it. I thought of cloud backup/sync and a web app for access on any device and sharing with ppl.
Not released to the public yet.
Oh man! I really need this extension 😞
When can you release it to public?
Hey @ufocoder, cool you are interested!
I'm planning on starting a closed beta this week. If you want I can shoot you a DM on twitter when it is on the store. It will be invisible at first, so only link access.
Awesome, that would be cool 😎
DM me the link when it's available. I've followed you on Twitter 😇
Thanks
