Modern Tab Switcher Firefox

Modern Tab Switcher

Quickly search and jump to tabs (Chrome/Brave-like Ctrl+Shift+A).

Features & Capabilities

A Firefox extension that replicates the quick tab-switching experience from Brave/Chrome, with Vim motions because I love Vim.

The shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+Space I found that to be comfortable enough, you can change it later for whatever you like.

Features

  • Fuzzy search across tab titles and domains, similar to Brave's tab search
  • Domain-first ranking — prioritizes matching the hostname, then the title
  • MRU (most recently used) tab ordering
  • Highlights matched characters in search results
  • Recently closed tabs — search and restore them instantly
  • Audible tab indicators
Navigation
Key Action

I decided to create this app because I couldn't find something even close to the behavior and the snappiness I was looking for.

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
