About TabRot

our tabs are rotting. You know the ones. That article from two weeks ago you swore you'd read. Those 14 Stack Overflow tabs from a debugging rabbit hole. The recipe you saved "for later." They're still there. Watching. Judging. TabRot doesn't close your tabs β€” it makes you face them. πŸ”΄ VISUAL DECAY Every tab gets a freshness score based on how long it's been ignored. Fresh β†’ Stale β†’ Rotting β†’ Dead. The colours don't lie. 😱 SHAME SCORE A live score based on how many tabs you have and how badly you're neglecting them. Five tiers from Zen Master to Meltdown. It updates every minute. There's no hiding. πŸ“Š REAL-TIME STATS See exactly how many tabs are fresh, stale, rotting, or dead at a glance. Filter by status to find the worst offenders. ⏱ AGE TRACKING Know precisely when each tab was opened, when you last looked at it, and how much time you've actually spent on it. Spoiler: it's less than you think. πŸ” SMART FILTERS Filter your tabs by status β€” show only the rotting ones, the dead ones, or face them all at once. Your call. πŸŒ— DARK MODE Easy on the eyes at 2am when you're finally dealing with your tab situation. Toggle between light and dark themes. πŸ’Ύ 100% LOCAL All data stays in your browser. No accounts required, no servers, no tracking. Your tab shame is between you and Chrome. β€” TabRot is not a tab manager. It won't auto-close anything, suspend tabs, or rearrange your browser. It's a mirror. It shows you what you already know but refuse to acknowledge: you have too many tabs open, and most of them are rotting. Built for tab hoarders, by a tab hoarder. Free forever.
