There is a hidden feature on many tabs - They close with mouse middle click! This is extremely important on tabs, because they always seems to have the smallest x button possible.
I've tested it to work on Firefox, chrome, IE, Visual studio and other applications.

- cakesy 17y agoI don't like how chrome of firefox does tab closing. When I close a tab, it can take a few seconds, and it feels like I missed the tiny button, so I click it again. Of course, this happens just as the tab is closed, and I end up closing the next one as well. Very thankful for history of clsoed tabs.
- bd 17y agoNot really hidden, it's very common (and extremely useful - Fitts's law FTW) user interface convention. I already became conditioned - I keep middle-clicking to close tabs automatically in every application, feeling something is broken when it doesn't work. Though Mac people don't usually have more than 1 button, so I kind of understand obsession about workarounds :).
