by Norm, 8 years agoI must second the review of 16 days ago. Once I get ten or more tabs open in Firefox 61, Colorful Tabs causes me to lose control of Firefox, as it continues to cycle through tabs all by itself. Impossible to stop this buggy add-on from taking control of Firefox. Once I disabled and removed Colorful Tabs, the random cycling through tabs ceased. This only happens once a lot of tabs are opened. But the bug is serious enough and disruptive enough that I made the decision to remove it.
I wasn't using it anyway. I liked the way it used to be where the tabs them selves were colored. I understand Mozilla changed their code, making the old implementation impossible to implement.

- Rated 5 out of 5by MarkusProkott, 2 months agoBest add-on ever. It's so essential.
Read Bug 1320585 on Bugzilla. OMG, why don't they implement tab colouring??? They even locked comments on that bug after they saw that so many people would love to have tab colours. Why do they hate users so much?
It's nice to have at least that current workaround with ColorfulTabs. I needed the original XUL addon so much, that I actually extended it to have C&P functionality.
IMO, tab colour should not be left to addon developers, but should be a HTML meta property like: . It belongs to the same place as favicons. It's weird that you can set a favicon in HTML, but not a background to it. The first one is totally normal – the second a sacrilege? This way it would be as easy as CSS to overide the tab colour with a user or extension set colour. - Rated 4 out of 5by CJIS, 7 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by malau, a year agoIt was useless 3 years ago, and it's useless today !
All the tabs remain the same colour UNLESS you click on one of them !!!!!!!
The Extension SHOULD colour all tabs at the top of the screen a different colour, because by default they are all white. But it doesn't. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18488585, a year agoI have not been able to get more than 1 tab colored and that one is the open tab. I would love to have my tab colors back

- Rated 1 out of 5by Greenberg, 2 years agoIt used to work now I cant get it to work. It used to work was a great addon when you have many open windows in multi-row especially although for that you have to use Floorp Firefox based browser.

- Rated 2 out of 5by phunk, 2 years agoCan developer PLEASE EXPLAIN why this add-on required "Access your data for all websites" permission? That sounds like an EXTREME SECURITY RISK, for an unknown use or benefit.
