Doesn't work at all. It's like it's not even there.

Only issue is that I sometimes have to hard refresh a tab (Ctrl+F5), then go to another tab and back in order to make the tab work again. Jman has this extension on GitHub, so I might be able to help fix it if/when it bothers me enough.

Works great, except, we have an issue that it's blocking sync from staying connected. This extension is causing the dreaded "Account sign-in details are out of date" issue that many of us seem to be having. What I really wish, would be for chrome to allow pinned tabs to not load in the background in the first place.

It's the closest best thing to Firefox option.

I would like what ever firefox does with regards to tab loading or suspended loading on start-up.

It does as it says - stops tabs from loading upon startup. However, many tabs simply wouldn't load when I did want them. Refreshing them might bring up the content without the markup, but I couldn't do anything more with the tab. Had to cut and paste the URL into a new tab.
