The Great-er Tab Discarder

Welcome to all users coming from "The Marvellous Suspender", "The Great Suspender (notrack)", "Tab Suspender", "Tiny Suspender" or other similar extensions! This extension can migrate your suspended tabs! Do not uninstall your existing extension(s) until you migrate to this one, or else Chrome will delete all your suspended tabs. Let Chrome run faster by freeing up resources used by old inactive tabs. Discarding a tab natively tells your browser it can free up memory and resources, and is the preferred way to keep your browser running fast and efficient. Tab Suspending is the old-school approach at saving memory, but allows for visual customization. Your browser will still assign some resources to the suspended "mini-pages" to allow for the customization. But you can also Discard a Suspended tab... perhaps getting the best of both worlds. New Features Suspend Tabs Suspend tabs in addition to Discarding them, giving you some visual customization. You can Discard or Suspend or both! Suspended Tabs can have dimmed favicons and custom icons added to the title Migrate Tabs Migrate suspended tabs from several other extensions. Discard all tabs at startup Prevents Chrome from loading all your tabs at startup, while preserving the tabs in your last session. Discard eligible tabs Same as "Discard other tabs" but observes the current auto-discard settings, like skipping Pinned and Audio tabs. Link to Chrome Discards page Adds a link on the context and popup menus to launch the built-in chrome://discards/ page. What does "Discarding" a tab mean? Discarding a tab does NOT close or remove or delete the tab. It natively tells your browser it can free up memory and resources, and is the preferred way to keep your browser running fast and efficient. What about "Suspending" tabs? Tab suspending is the old-school approach at saving memory, but allows for visual customization. Your browser will still assign some resources to the suspended "mini-pages" to allow for the customization. You can also Discard a Suspended tab... perhaps getting the best of both worlds.
