User reviews

If this had the ability to selectively add domain-level matching for certain sites (for example, reddit, facebook, etc. it would be IMO a perfect extension. Without it, any time I change context on some sites this won't suppress duplicates.

Works great, very useful, switches automatically to dupe tab you try to navigate to. keeps your browsing session very lean!
