Request for option to keep pinned tabs always loaded #29

Hello, I have a few pinned tabs that would be useful to have always loaded (e.g gmail / discord) Would it be possible to add an option for keeping pinned tabs always loaded?

That's already the default. Are you seeing differently?

Huh, I just tested it and it does seem pinned tabs always stay loaded. I honestly can't remember why i worded it that way; it's been a while since I opened this request.

Most likely, I meant "option to keep tabs audio tabs loaded". I just tested an unpinned youtube tab playing a 3+ minute song. Dormancy was set to 1 minute timeout and "keep active window alive" is unchecked. I then set the music playing and switched to another tab. The result is that my song got cut in the middle because the youtube tab unloaded. I repeated the test 2 more times to make sure and in both the youtube tab got unloaded before the song could finish.

Great, thanks for checking. Sound is fixed in #21, will ship in next version!
