Thanks Webber, I appreciate the review and feedback! I've considered Simple Tab Sorter "feature complete" for quite some time and have no intention of releasing future updates aside from bug fixes that may be required as a result of future chrome browser/API changes. That has happened twice so far, first when Chrome added "Tab Groups" and most-recently when Google forced the migration from the v2 Chrome extension manifest to v3. As for Super Tab Sorter, so far, I've added optional tab deduplication during sorting and I've modified the "Sort By URL" behavior to sort by domain and sub-sort by host name. The latter change leverages a 3rd party library that went against my minimalist approach to Simple Tab Sorter, which ultimately motivated me to create a separate extension for all future development.

The extension was updated and after I clicked is sorted the tabs of EVERY CHROME WINDOW I HAD opened messing up the order I was used to, why change something like that without a big warning ffs.

Hi Paolo, apologies for the inconvenience! This is definitely something I would have mentioned had it been an intentional change. Unfortunately, this appears to have been a side-effect of converting from chrome manifest v2 -> v3 that I hadn't caught as a result of a seemingly unexpected query behavior change. I just submitted a fix to the Chrome Web Store which should appear as v0.4.1. Best, Peter

No sure if it is due to my chrome is outdated, (I am in Win 7), the extension doesn't work after upgrade, it doesn't sort correctly.

Hi Andrew, I'm sorry to hear that you're encountering issues, I know that can be frustrating. Google ended support for Chrome on Windows 7 around February 2023 according to https://www.zdnet.com/article/time-to-upgrade-google-chrome-is-going-to-end-support-for-these-old-versions-of-windows/. The extension stopped working for you because Google is forcing developers to upgrade to Manifest v3 - they've announced that manifest v2 extensions may be automatically disabled in browsers, and no longer installable from the Chrome Web Store, in June 2024. Manifest v3 supports Chrome version 88 and later which, I'm guessing, is more recent than the version you currently have installed. Please submit a Bug Report at https://github.com/pwhite2/simple-tab-sorter/issues if you're using Chrome version 88 or later since this is not the appropriate place for tech support. To be clear, for you and anyone else reviewing this feedback, this problem is strictly with the Chrome Web Store version of this extension no longer being compatible with pre-Chrome version 88 browsers and there's nothing I can do about it for the above reasons. If you're using an older browser, you should uninstall the extension and install "Release v0.3.3" by following the instructions directly under "Install as an extension from source" from https://github.com/pwhite2/simple-tab-sorter. If you follow these instructions, the extension won't auto-update and you should be set as long as you continue to not upgrade your browser. I'd appreciate it if you would either remove or revise your review since your issue is in no way reflective of this extension when installed on currently supported browsers. Thanks, Peter

Updated review: Great extension that I've used for years. There was a little hiccup recently with Chrome (see my original review) that had me worried about privacy, but Peter has written in detail about that issue in his response and so I'm happy to correct my review. Original review: This was a great extension until it added the ability to look at your browsing history. Chrome disabled the extension automatically as a result. Remove that and I'll be happy to give 5 stars.

The extension is a gem! Compatible with marvellous suspender which means it not only sorts all the tabs that were put to sleep but also moves the active tab to the end.

Straightforward, functional, and free of unnecessary bloat or shady requests for random permissions. Love it.

Wow. I love it. I have nearly 100 clients that I am sharing google docs with and entering spreadsheet data. Being able to alphabetize my open tabs with just the touch of a button saves me SO much time sorting through my clients names. Thank you Peter White. Fantastic.
