by coolvibe, 4 years ago2-5-20 Review update:
I agree with Korkenwine review, the lack of Tabs Search options is a major missing option. Like many, when doing extensive online researching or shopping, I can easily have over 1K - 2K Tabs open, can get very hard to navigate in TST, do not always have time to go thru & clear out unwanted research tabs daily, that is why TST would be best to stay on top, to help quickly save multi list of ever growing tabs for later.
Again, TST is problaly the best (All in one) extension have found in last few years,but after so much troubleshooting, just cannot get TST to work consistently.
I am also using a fairly new Windows 10 64Bit Acer laptop, (not a 32Bit). I have ( 16GB RAM 1TB STORAGE), so I doubt if my PC hardware is the issue, as even most of the outdated Tabs extensions tested work, but have disabled them, due to lack of addtl options or updates. So my search, (would gladly Pay for even) for the closest TST addon & Full Tabs Mgr continues, until it gets worked out. Cheers!

Great concept, after trying hundreds of addons, TST has to be one of the top extensions , with most useful features if have many Tabs, & need in user friendly vertical drop down view, for quick navigation & saving, So we do not have to keep installing & removing several outdated junk extensions , that only do a few basic Tab management options in Windows 10 PCs.
**Really wish Firefox & other Top browsers, would create a built-in browser extension like Tree style tabs , with most useful features if have many Tabs need in user friendly vertical drop down view, for quick navigation & desired selection of Multi Tabs saving & bookmarking etc.
Even though Tree style Tabs is a great concept, but like others have said, it just has far too many
Bugs & issues , so cannot even use it hardly at this time.
Like many, I also Used to use the older Tree style Tabs version until it, like most addons became outdated, & full of issues.
Was very excited when this new version was released recently, with many more options, but sadly, have still not been able to get it to work correctly last few most current Firefox versions.
TST loads all of my few hundred Tabs in vertical TST Sidebar, but that’s it, cannot search thru, or scroll
Thru more only 12 tabs out of a few hundred, TST doe nothing, tree style keeps freezing up.
After spending days & hours scouring thru all the Tree style Tabs FAQs, & support forums pages,have always had bug reports enabled, also keep restarting cache, unchecking & rechecking all options, many times, to no avail.
Like many, just do not have nay more time or energy to diagnose why TST addon not working still.
***Would be great (if TST Developers put in a Built-in Errors & Bugs troubleshooter & Fix option) so we do not have To keep trying to figure all TST's issues & bugs with each Browser version update.
Again great concept, could be the one of the Best extensions ever, if developers could
Work out all the ongoing Sidebar Tabs issues & bugs, most other Tab Managers do not have all these issues, So can finally use TST, without all the ongoing headaches.
My online Reviews of Tree style Tabs Rated ( 2.6 out of 5 Stars).

- Rated 1 out of 5by fabung, 11 hours agoI really don't understand.
Why does copying (alt+D+enter) a subtab create a new parent tab instead of creating it at the same level?
Please don't update. It gets worse with every update.

Problems in previous versions have been fixed.
Thank you for the quick feedback.
This add-on is one of the best add-ons for Firefox.

This is a really bad update.
The previously intuitive drag/tree creation method has become truly confusing.
01. In the past, if I dragged a tab and put it inside, it created a new subtree, but now I have to drag it on top or bottoem of the tab to create a new subtree. (It’s different every time. What are the rules?)
02. In some cases I can create a subtree of tabs, but in other cases I cannot create a subtree of tabs. It becomes really sensitive when dragging.
03. It is not possible to create a new tree by dragging a child tab that does not have child tabs.
(There's more, but that's all I remember...)
What is the reason for this update??
Instead, it has become really, really confusing.
It would be nice to roll back. At first I thought there was something wrong with Firefox.
The usual tree style tab is 5 stars.
But I'm giving it 1 star because of this update.
2024. 04. 04. - Rated 5 out of 5by Bittertongue, 3 days agoIf you have a particular mental issue like I do where you cannot help but open tabs upon tabs without closing prior tabs a lot of the time, then being too lazy to continuously scroll across horizontally to open up squished shortened tabs to see if you should close them, no matter how much coffee you've consumed and then closing the session for the next day, only to repeat the process contributing to your neverending tab collection, then this add on is for you.
I'm not exaggerating when I say this add on is a lifesaver and should be a feature on all browers by default, tabs are elegantly displayed and you can swiftly deduce what is important for further reading and what is unimportant and close them swiftly, trees also automatically form and categorize further if you've branched off from a particular tab, I've just closed 2000+ tabs I've procrastinated closing for approximately 1 month. - Rated 5 out of 5by CrystalSplitter, 4 days ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by dikunav, 17 days agoI wanted to use it to have Chrome convenient experience with tab groups (Chrome is better in that, but don't support multiple search engines and other cool functions), but I can use it only on desktop where I don't need tab group really much because I already have list of all tabs when browsing current tab, and can't on Android where I really needed it. Also realization of tab pinning and tab containers is not very convenient. And creating new tab button is (only) on bottom side of page which is not convenient too. Also I always forget about tabs tree and start using native top menu, and tab tree doesn't even (only icon like in chrome mobile groups maybe) copy there.
P.S. Also with 100+ tabs Firefox crashes several time a day, but I'm not sure that's just because tab tree - Rated 5 out of 5by infirms, 19 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17501884, 19 days ago新機能の「タブを端に貼り付け」が非常に面白い。
気づいたらあったので、なんじゃこりゃ?と思って使ってみたら想像以上に斬新な機能で、思わずレビューを書きに来ました。
「タブをピン留め」機能は、必要なタブを常に手が届くところに置いておく点で便利です。
しかし、ピン留めした時点でツリー構造を失わせてしまうため、本アドオンとは実は相性が悪かった。
それが、「タブを端に貼り付け」だとツリー構造そのままに、指定したタブだけスクロールしても画面内に取り残されるようになります。
これにより、「必要なタブ」にアクセスするピン留め機能に対して、「必要なツリー」へとすぐさまアクセスできるようになり、いわばツリーの途中にしおりを挟むような感覚で扱えるようになります。
たとえば、ある記事から派生するタブをぽこぽこ開いておいて、ふと別のことを別ツリーで始めたりする際、根っこのところの記事のタブを「端に貼り付け」しておけば、元の記事の作業に戻ろうとする際に非常にスムーズにそれを見つけられるでしょう。
ツリーのインデントの深さを保ったままピン留めされるデザインも実に上手く考えられています。
意識せずとも「しおりの階層化」のような整理がなされるため、後から読み解いて探す際に非常に便利です。
大量のタブを開きっぱなしで扱う人間にとって、これは革新的な概念と言わざるを得ません。
それこそタブにツリー機能を持ち込んだ際の発想・発明に匹敵します。いや、脱帽しました。
ユーザーはぜひこの機能を使ってみるべきでしょう。 - Rated 5 out of 5by Lakshya, 22 days agoI am a coder who is working on a big web project, to organize all my tabs, this extension plays a very big role. I recommend this extension to everyone.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lightnin93, a month agoI've been using this for so long. Since I heard it announced on Security Now podcast probably over 10 years ago. I can't imagine a world without it. I can't use any other browsers since they don't have it.
