2024-04-19 Firefox user 17373669 It's working great! But I have a question. I often open the same tab session. There are a lot of tabs. On some of them I used the "Don't suspend this tab" option. How can I see which tabs have this option activated? Or maybe I can disable this option for all tabs at once? Thanks!
2024-04-13 Firefox user 17069354 Been using for over a year. Works automatically in the background and I've been able to have close to a hundred brower tabs which are suspended. It allows to modify the time before suspending, from 5 seconds to 1 hour. Highly recommend.

2023-12-07 TIOLI ❌ You click on it and it doesn't do anything or suspend any tabs, literally just open the menu and that's it. Useless.

2023-07-12 Firefox user 17975234 Good for the most part but need the option to never suspend a specific domain.
2023-05-19 ander This works very well, but if you don't want it to interrupt download services like Mega.nz, you'd better add them to its whitelist. If you do, when you switch away from their tabs (even though the tabs are already loaded, right?), it can stop them in their tracks.
