User reviews

Pros
  • Helps prevent opening too many tabs, aiding focus and organization.
  • Works effectively as advertised.
  • Simple and straightforward functionality.
Cons
  • Default limit of 10 tabs is too low and can be problematic when initially installed with multiple tabs already open.
  • The notification messages about reaching tab limits are considered too personal or lengthy by some users.
  • The add-on quickly closes newly opened tabs instead of stopping them, leading to confusion for users.
Most mentioned
  • Default tab limit is restrictive and should be adjustable upon installation.
  • Users want clearer, less personal notification messages for tab limits.
  • There should be an option to access settings even when the tab limit is reached.
