User reviews
This extension works as described and is very useful. It actually works better than "double left click to close" as using the center button (scroll wheels' click) prevents accidental tab closure. The happy giraffe approves ➡️🦒
Exactly what I imagined, works well, recommended 👍👍
Must have for mousepad users , simple and just what I am looking for
