Could you consider making a port to firefox now that it supports web extensions?

arifwn commented 6 years ago

Yeah, firefox seems to support everything needed to run this extension. It even has tabs.discard() api like chrome. I'm using firefox daily now and starting to see the needs to suspend tabs on firefox (since it's a multi-process browser now). I'll see if I can test the plugin on firefox when time permits.

Sry but it's been a while since this was updated... Are there any updates arifwn? I am using this extension in Opera and it works great, best extension for this. Thanks and have a nice day.

Latest version is v2.0.3 pushed a few weeks ago. If you're on v2.0.3, then you're already using the latest version.

Hi, is there an update on the port for Firefox? I am using your extension on Chromium based browsers and it works excellent but couldn't find any similar working alternative for Firefox.

arifwn commented 1 year ago

Actually I'm still working on the Firefox version. There are some issues related to the background scripts that need to be fixed first in order to get the extension working on Firefox .
