>Firefox you can set up tab discarding (via extension) that unloads unused tabs

What Add-on do you use for this.



Auto Tab Discard[1] does it automatically after a time. Tabs can be set to not get discarded, eg when form elements with changes are present, media is playing, tab is pinned, or just whitelisting.

You can simple exit and reopen your browser. Only the focus Tab will be loaded while all others are unloaded.
