2024-03-10 Firefox user 16643943 I have used it for about a year at a guess. Never given me any trouble. Made it easy to find tabs and I often have hundreds open (well, about 200 say). And those annoying vids that play and you can't find them? I use the 'audio only' checkbox and find them easy. Yep, I like it. I can bulk delete a whole bunch. When I see them listed there I can decide to junk 'em a lot quicker easier than I will when I check each tab one by one - that way I always seem to decide I still need 'em. :) Tabhunter helps me grow up and get ruthless and just zap 'em.
2023-05-21 Scoox I use this add-on all the time. Knocking two stars off because the hotkey feature is broken. The default hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+S) is used by Firefox to take a screenshot and the hotkey text box doesn't seem to allow typing, so I can't enter a custom key shortcut. It only allows deleting but once deleted you can't type anything, is this a bug?

2022-09-12 Victor Thanks for this Firefox addon! My name is Victor and I'm a tab messie/junkie (currently 2161 tabs open... 😞). Tabhunter helps me taking control back over my browser (macOS). And the "audio only" checkbox is... priceless!
2022-06-03 Niko This addon is really nice, quick and does the fuzzy searching how I'd like. But you can't change the keyboard shortcut to start search and on Linux it's a fairly horrendous default (ctrl+5) :(
2022-05-13 Jurg Just what I needed with my (too) many open tabs.

2021-11-06 RedDwarf I have been using this since v1.0.5.1 with older browsers using the non web extension type extensions and I much preferred the way that worked with a separate window. That is no longer possible with the current extensions :( I am now using Waterfox Classic 2021.10. However every version after v3.1.2 stops showing any search tabs with the last search entry when the Tab search button is clicked. When the button is clicked, the previous search term is there but no tabs are shown. The only way to get it to show any tabs is to laboriously click the More button, scroll down the window to the bottom and click one of the Sort by radio buttons. It will then show tabs in the window. Up to and including 3.1.2 everything works okay but anything from 3.2.0 onwards makes this extension unusable for me. BTW the Audio only check box is unticked in all these cases. I will stick to 3.1.2 unless this is fixed in later releases. BTW I need older extensions for my fully Sandboxed browser usage which is why I use Waterfox Classic. Carl
