Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

Changes tab ordering in a manner similar to pre-2010 Firefox.

The video explains it best, but by default, this extension does the following:

- When a new tab is opened, it is sent to the end on the far-right

- If that tab was opened with a left-click, such that it is automatically switched to, closing it will switch back to the tab from which is was opened (as long as no other tab had been switched to in the meantime)

What that means in practical terms is this:

1. if I have an RSS reader open, left-clicking to read a story immediately will show me an open a tab on the end of the list. Closing that story it will take me back to my RSS reader.

As already mentioned, this breaks the Split Tab feature. It also breaks tab grouping — after every Chrome restart, all pages except one are removed from the group.

I used this for two or three weeks and felt like it was a five star extension. But then two or three weeks later, my Split Tab feature suddenly stopped working and this extension was the cause of it. This extension hasn't been updated in over a year, so I doubt that the developer will fix it anytime soon. I guess that I will need to look for another extension

Unfortunately, this causes a bug with Chrome's new split tab feature, which means split view only works on the last tab. Disabling this extension will make split view work on all tabs. Please fix this bug.

Does what it's supposed to, isn't affected by the Chrome extension purge. However small the audience for this is, this is appreciated, thank you dev.

Perfect as at time of review and does exactly what I need ie. open new tabs to the far right. Was using a similar ext, SimpleTabOrder but it may be disabled soon due to it not being Manifest v3. This ext is a perfect alternative.

It does more or less what it says on the tin. It moves newly opened tabs to the far right of the tab bar. What the extension unfortunately also does is disturb the functionality of tab groups. While you are browsing everything works fine and you can normally group your tabs, but if you close the browser and restart it a while later, all those tabs are ungrouped again and to the left of the group banner.1 I work with tab groups a lot, and this issue makes the extension virtually unusable to me.
