Overview
Product summary

xTab is a Chrome extension that lets you limit the maximum number of tabs that can be open at one time.
You can set the tab limit to any number and choose what tab should be removed when you hit that limit:
- Least recently used (default)
- Least accessed
- Oldest
You can alternatively block new tabs from opening completely once the limit has been reached.

My main goal to limit number of tabs is to reduce memory usage and avoid overloading the machine. This only works if I have a total cap on open tabs, i.e. not in a single window, but across all of them. Basically I need the application to force to chose to close some tabs if I want a new one and yes, it shouldn't done blindly, i.e. I cannot see myself using anything but "Block new tabs from opening". In it's current implementation the extension limit can be easily avoided by opening a new window. As such it's of no use to me. Remove it.
Works perfectly, although like another user already stated - would love to block myself from being able to open new windows as well :D
Useless at it only limits number of tabs per window. I can still open as many windows with e.g. 10 tabs as I want.
It's not working 100% for me. I've set it to 5 tabs and sometimes if i open a few tabs too fast it will ignore that limit and open more tabs.
Powerful!
Working as intended, which is just a compliment these days. So, thank you! One point though: I don't quite understand why there's the option of closing existing tabs. Fundamentally, this loses user information without the users consent (made worse by being the default option). I would suggest changing the default to blocking new tabs, and better yet (not sure if possible) notify the user new tabs are blocked.
Good that you introduced the block, not closing the random tab. However, one feature would be great to have, which other similar extensions include - the tab counter on the icon - with that, it would be clear 5 stars...
Simply and works great. That was what I was looking for in oder to prevent compulsive clickng.
I think there is an issue related to when I click on a link from another app, like outlook for example, the extension prevents it from opening.
It is useful and simple. Good work. Just maybe a little too simple. I usually want to block just one (or few) of my open windows, not all of them. It will be a 5 star extension, with a way to make every window have its own settings and allow to choose what to limit or not (e.g. option "windows to block": current-one / all / selected-ones) I'll open a feature request on GitHub :)
