[Bug] Tap groups switching loop #39

Open shp7724 opened 1 year ago

shp7724 commented 1 year ago

First up, thanks for the great extension. I've been using it all day.

From time to time, however, I'm seeing this kind of weird behavior where the tab groups seem to switch between each other continuously when I open a new website in a separate tab.

I haven't yet been able to identify the underlying cause or reproduce the issue consistently. Is this a known issue or has it been reported previously?

Thanks.

Hey @shp7724, thanks for the report. No, I have not seen this yet and nobody has reported it – also thanks for the video, it helps a lot in visualizing the problem. That said, it's realy hard to fix such a bug without the ability to reproduce it. At some point in the future, I'd like to swap out the underlying engine of the extension with something less hacked-together. I cannot say yet when I'll find the time for implementing the new engine though. 😅

Cool. I'll let you know if I happen to find the reproduction step. I hope it's fixable without reimplementing the whole engine 🥲
