About Tab Memory Cleaner

THE PROBLEM: Sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter accumulate massive amounts of cached data β€” IndexedDB, Cache Storage, Service Workers β€” that eat 1-2GB+ of RAM. Chrome's built-in Memory Saver only sleeps inactive tabs. It doesn't clean the bloat. THE SOLUTION: Tab Memory Cleaner gives you 3 levels of cleanup, accessible via right-click menu, popup, or keyboard shortcuts: ⚑ SOFT CLEAN (Alt+1) Hard reload the current tab. Flushes JavaScript memory. You stay logged in. 🧹 DEEP CLEAN (Alt+2) Clears cache, IndexedDB, localStorage, Cache Storage, and Service Workers for the current site, then reloads. You stay logged in. This is what actually frees the 1.9GB. πŸ’£ NUKE & RELOAD (Alt+3) Clears EVERYTHING including cookies. Like visiting the site for the first time. Use when a site is completely broken. πŸ’€ DISCARD OTHER TABS (Alt+0) Put all other tabs to sleep instantly. Keep only your active tab. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ALSO INCLUDES: β€’ Discard tabs to the left / right β€’ Visual popup showing all tabs and their status β€’ Action history (last 50 cleanups) β€’ Works on any website ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY & SECURITY: βœ… Zero data collection β€” nothing leaves your browser βœ… Zero network requests β€” no analytics, no tracking βœ… Zero dependencies β€” no npm packages, no frameworks βœ… Open source β€” https://github.com/salencar-lang/tab-memory-cleaner βœ… Manifest V3 β€” latest Chrome security standard βœ… ~300 lines of JavaScript total ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED: β€’ contextMenus β€” Add items to right-click menu β€’ tabs β€” Read tab titles and URLs for the popup display β€’ browsingData β€” Clear cache/cookies/storage per site β€’ storage β€” Save your action history locally β€’ <all_urls> β€” Required to clear data for any website ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS: Alt+1 β†’ Soft Clean Alt+2 β†’ Deep Clean (recommended for heavy sites) Alt+3 β†’ Nuke & Reload Alt+0 β†’ Discard all other tabs Customize shortcuts at: chrome://extensions/shortcuts ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Made with frustration after watching LinkedIn consume 1.9GB of RAM.
