User Reviews
The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because it does not work on my phone. (Android) For my laptop and desktop, though, this is very useful and it is my favorite tab managing extension.

Is Lean Tab Limiter Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Lean Tab Limiter requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
