Extension summary
This extension automatically discard opened tabs in the background (with ctrl).
Discarded tabs consume no memory and open no additional processes (visible in Chrome's task manager).
Some browsers already offer this feature (edge/brave), but tabs are deactivated after a certain time. This application does it immediately.
Compatible with chrome and all chromium-based browsers (vivaldi/edge/brave...)
The code is lightweight and only works when a tab is opened (less than a kilobyte).
No setting and work out of the box.
