It's good but it doesn't work in just one browser window. If you have two Firefox windows open, it rotates them both, whereas in other Chromium-based browsers it does change tabs only in the window you need.

Works well, thanks. I use it to rotate tabs in one window while working in another (rotate tabs in initially active window option)
