Use case

Example 1

A June 2017 screenshot of one of my windows:

2017-06-19 example

– that's the Manage my groups interface of Tab Groups by Luís Miguel (Quicksaver), which was discontinued as a result of Mozilla's directions towards WebExtensions.

Example 2

Today, Tab Tally shows four hundred and thirty-seven tabs (thirty-four loaded).

Generally

I keep the caboodle well-organised but there is a lot going on, typically:

  • hundreds of tabs
  • ten windows (never too many; any more than twelve Firefox windows, interspersed with other applications, feels excessive)
  • between four and ten groups per window (rarely more than twenty per window)

– a relatively complex use case.

Ease of use

I typically use the contextual menu features of Tab Groups (not the management interface pictured above) to move from one group to another. So I like the idea of Add tab context menu to move a tab to another group · Issue #29 · denschub/firefox-tabgroups, I wonder whether it might be reopened …

… or would you describe use cases such as mine as out of scope for Simplified Tab Groups?


Big love for:

If you have any actual issues, feature requests or whatever, feel free to open them, but I don't see anything actionable here.

OK, there's the plea to re-open #29.
