Lots of issues here. (A) Please follow the "Show HN: [name/summary]" convention for promoting your own work. Clickbait is annoying and destroys some goodwill. (B) Hard "no" on sharing my browsing history with a random third party. From your privacy policy: > when you create a collection of tabs in Partizion, we store each individual tab's title, url, and status data points like whether or not you'd like the tab to be pinned. URLs are very sensitive. They can easily be pieced together to become unique identifiers. Sometimes they have tokens in them. There's no reason to store this stuff in your own databases when you can sync it across the user's Chome installations using the built-in storage API[1].

Hey HN! The backstory of Tab Manager Plus is an older Chrome extension called "Tab Manager". Unfortunately the main developer sold it off to some sleazy company that infested it with lots of adware, etc. So Chrome webstore removed that old extension, and suddenly it felt like I lost a little finger - because none of the other Tab Managers were so simplistic like this one ( I tried many ). Fast forward to Tab Manager Plus - it's a fork of the old ( clean ) Tab Manager extension, with an improved design and all improvement requests built in ( there were actually quite a lot ) Main features are : - see all tabs and windows in a small chrome popup - drag and drop tabs in between windows - highlight duplicate tabs - immediate(!) tab search once you open the popup ( type right away ) - see the open tab counter over the tab icon - you can limit

how many open tabs there should be per window. e.g. if you set the limit to 15, and then open tab 16, it will move it to a new window instead. That's the... main features. Code-wise it's based on React. The source is available here : https://github.com/stefanXO/Tab-Manager-Plus Tab manager does not mess with session data, nor does it submit any information anywhere. Let me know how you like it!
