Here is a screenshot of my current HN reading list: https://i.imgur.com/KvbucE2.png https://i.imgur.com/KvbucE2.png
It is similar to Tree Style Tabs for Firefox but with some key differences:
- It sits in a separate window and shows the tree for your entire current session. Each Chrome window is a child of the root node.
- It supports indentation via Tab or Shift-Tab and has several useful keyboard shortcuts
- Rearranging the tabs with the mouse is very precise. Indentation can also be controlled this way.
- It uploads the entire tree to Google Drive periodically and manually. This way I can move my tab tree between computers with a simple drag and drop.
- It can unload tabs or entire sub-trees (the green X icon in the screenshot). This makes extensions like The Great Suspender obsolete and I can still keep my gigantic tree hierarchy without eating all my RAM.
- dredmorbius 8y agoIt became nagware, which among several other (mis)features was a killer.
- hs86 8y agoDo you mean that it repeatedly asks for payment? I purchased a license long ago and did not know how bad it treated free users in recent versions. That being said, I still do not regret for paying for this extension. It is still the only browser extension I ever paid for and just like back then with Tree Style Tab for Firefox this is the extension that keeps me from switching away from Chrome.
- dredmorbius 8y agoIt broke flow, which is the greater offense. I've not used it in years.
