I love it, came from Tabs Outliner. Love the simplicity and ease of use and the clean interface.

Would love to donate a few bucks but so far haven't found a way :)

Excelent. Simple yet very powerful. Wont have a browser open without TabFern also open again!
Thanks for creating this and for doing it open source.

I just opened chrome and it showed me and empty tab. I tried with TabFern and it restored a backup from last month... so it's basically useless.

It's basic and straightforward in it's functionality but by periodically saving to a cloud drive it has a) saved my (figurative) bacon after many MacOS and Win10 crashes and b) allows me to pick up research where I left off from any other system. In fact automating those tab snapshots periodically is about the only thing I really miss (hint hint ;-)

С пользователем "Виктор-Оксана Андрушко" Не согласен. У меня Slimjet. При нажатии на значок расширения его всплывающее окно открывается во весь экран(монитор),НЕ удобно конечно,но через... несколько секунд (когда прогрузится всё сохранённое) окно принимает ранее заданные размеры. На Alt+Tab реакции расширения никакой Нет. Уважаемый разработчик,прикрути пожалуйста русский язык! Там же ж Не много надо(Dear developer, please tie the Russian language! In the same place Not much :) ;) ).

куча недостатков и глюков.. Во первых меняет свой размер почти каждый раз, задолбался двигать подстраивать размер хрома под панель. Во вторых через алт+таб видим. ТОже задолбался переключатся все время на него попадая.

very similar to, but not as good as Tabs Outliner due to inability to close tabs from the overview window.

5 stars alone just for undertaking this much work and effort into a solution to our tab hell in chrome :) AND on github too! Also looks like it could be a potential replacement/alternative for some of Session Buddy's features.

I'm happy to see a tab manager inspired by TabsOutliner since I really did like that extension until I realized how horrible the licensing and support was. ("license" invalidated after first time I synced chrome to another device, 2yrs later still not fixed.) The author for that one got a lot of things right but so much wrong.

Hopefully this will be a viable alternative to TabsOutliner without the licensing nonsense and annoying interface stuffs mentioned in another review.

I'd much rather donate to a FOSS project than purchase a license for someones buggy obfuscated code. Maybe eventually a donation system could be put in place if one doesn't already exist.

I'll follow up and edit this review as I use it more.

excellent
What make this extension better than others is ability to take a backup file and add it to chrome after new windows installation
