Features & Capabilities

If you tend to open many tabs, closing them when no longer needed can be a tedious task. Fortunately, you don't have to do it yourself.

Dustman is an extension that closes tabs you don't need anymore. By default it closes tabs which haven't been used in the last 20 minutes, leaving at least 5 tabs open. It ignores pinned tabs and tabs that play sound. You can restore tabs Dustman closes via the dustman button.

User Reviews

It STILL starts with a limit of 20 minutes rather than starting off. please do NOT do this. People like me who are desperate for a tab-closing app will try a bunch of them and it's an unexpected shock to lose tons of tabs to this. EDIT: Oh, and the 5-tab limit is worse. Ugggh.

Works as it should and the fact that it saves the last tabs it archived is really neat. This addon has helped make the jump from Arc to Zen. 10/10!
