The Chrome Web Store rounds user counts down to the leading digit, so the user line moves in steps. The ratings count is exact and is the better signal of real adoption.

About TabStar

This provides a simple feature which other tab grouping extensions lack. It allows a regex capture group to become the name for a new group. Simple. In my use-case, many tabs are associated with a specific Jira task. Sometimes, I will switch between them multiple times during a day, and it's extremely useful to be able to group them automatically. For example, I have a pattern defined: (PRJ-\d+) which automatically groups tabs associated with the same ticket in the Jira project PRJ.
