by Firefox user 12340349, 8 years agoThe only problem as I see it so far, is the order of tabs on restore is reversed, and 2 specific tabs, have quirks on that. Tab 1, and whatever tab I was focused on upon closing FF last session.
First, after I close FF, when I reopen it the tabs load in reverse order. Can I assume its because the tabs open next to the current tab, but each time a new tab is opened it is inserted closest to the current tab, as opposed to the end of the queue of related tabs if that makes sense. Im sure theres a more technical way to say that, but thats the best Ive got.
Let say I have 50 tabs open. Im looking at tab 20, I click a link to open a new tab, that new tab is tab 21 pushign the old 21 to position 22. Still from tab 20 I click another link to open another tab and becomes the new tab 21, and the previous 21 is now 22, and 22 becomes 23.
To solve the reverse order issue, I need to open FF, reclose FF, then reopen it.
Secondly, I also note that the first tab of a previous session is always still in Tab 1 slot as it should be... and the tab I was focused on when I closed the session, even if say Tab 40, is now Tab 2 upon session restore, the rest are in reverse order.
I also note with another addon that modifies a limited functionality inbuilt FF Quantum feature, the inbuilt feature operates first, then the more customisable addon changes it, as opposed to simply replacing he inbuilt feature. Is that part of the reason for reverse order loading of tabs maybe? Is there an about: config setting I need to tweak?
But awesome work so far, once I found this and a decent speed dial approximation, I updated to Quantum. Until then I was holding out.

- Rated 4 out of 5by OMIDT, 7 days agoVery High CPU usage on many tabs.
Other wise is amazing tools i am using all the time. because of this issue i have to disable it and enable all the time to avoid my CPU fan go crazy. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17633691, 9 days agoGarbage extension. Can not find specific previous session. UI absolutely terrible. I can not emphasize how much I hate this PoS software. Uninstalling.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18514632, 13 days agoCloud sync is broken, infinite loading (Same thing like GitHub issue 1451). Suggested fix to delete all data does not work.
May work well for local-only use. But extension explicitly advertises cloud sync feature. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20033380, 16 days agoDo not use this on browsers with multiple workspaces like Floorp - it moves all the tabs to one workspace, rendering the extension worse than useless.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Altus, a month agoThe addon is not bad, at first glance. He copes with the assigned tasks, BUT very frequent begging for money (donations) is very annoying. I even started writing down the dates when the internal "thank the author" timer went off.

And I was just opening a window to clear saved sessions. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 20008329, a month ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by AlexOja, a month agoSoliciting money all the time. Clunky. Sync tends to clutter everything because default settings haven't been thought through well enough. Does work pretty well, but if you're going to bug me for donations all the time, I'll just uninstall.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Erick, 2 months agoCan you add local support for the addon to remember spit view tabs? thanks
- Rated 4 out of 5by Katherine Howell, 2 months agoOne of the best extensions I've installed. Simple, effective, and doesn't bloat the browser at all.

- Rated 3 out of 5by kone, 3 months agoBetter than Firefox's built-in backup, but unnecessarily complicated!
I don't see the point of many of the features. Unfortunately, there's no help section to clarify this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Mimrix, 3 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14498287, 3 months agoFrom the volume of open issues and the lack of activity on Git, It looks like Sienori has either abandoned this extension or doesn't have the time to maintain it. April 26.
