Reviews of the great discarder:
Great. It does what it's supposed to do. A Vivaldi User.
Having tried this, then The Marvelous Suspender, then back to this, I can safely say as a Vivaldi (Chromium) user that The Great Discarder is the better of the two. I have to say, I wanted to like The Marvelous Suspender, but it isn't as good as this.
can you make it such that tabs get suspended by days. like i want tabs of today or this week to be active and older than a week or day etc to be suspended. it would really be useful
