Great tool! It helps with managing tabs in collections. This is especially useful when I have to close my browser and don't want to lose all the open tabs for my research. I organize different research projects into separate tab collections. "Replace with open tabs" feature is phenomenal, which helps keep collection up to date. Thanks!

Session Buddy is a very useful extension. After installing it, I no longer worry about losing my tabs, especially when my browser closes accidentally (e.g., due to a power outage). Thanks so much!

Duplicate Tabs Chaos and no way to Group Tabs within one session. Been using it for ages as a simple backup for my last session in Chrome in case Chrome crashes and its own "Recent Tabs"-feature doesn't work. Unfortunately, what's really awkward is that the find duplicate function only works in the "active tab collection" and the "saved collections". 1) It does NOT work across all saved sessions. 2) It does NOT work across the entire history either. So, it really cramps up all sessions and the history unnecessarily. When you go either through "saved sessions" or "history" it's like finding a needle in the hay stack because hundreds of hundreds of tabs appear over and over again. Like the app and that they keep on improving it, but it would be really good to get rid of this mass of duplicate tabs (maybe via a one click toggle button that allows you to delete ALL duplicate tabs or keep hundreds of tabs from your history and saved sessions over and over again. Why would I need 25 tabs of the same URL in my library? I only need the newest one of course..(in my humble opinion..). Would using it more frequently if this would be solved..
