en Perfect as at time of review and does exactly what I need ie. open new tabs to the far right. Was using a similar ext, SimpleTabOrder but it may be disabled soon due to it not being Manifest v3. This ext is a perfect alternative.

en It does more or less what it says on the tin. It moves newly opened tabs to the far right of the tab bar. What the extension unfortunately also does is disturb the functionality of tab groups. While you are browsing everything works fine and you can normally group your tabs, but if you close the browser and restart it a while later, all those tabs are ungrouped again and to the left of the group banner.1 I work with tab groups a lot, and this issue makes the extension virtually unusable to me.

Exactly what I wanted...and only what I wanted. I keep several high priority tabs open almost all the time, and I didn't want new tabs pushing them off to the right. This extension helps me keep my tabs in the order I want them in, without having to manually move things around. I've been using this extension for several years and still love it.
2021-08-22 Jess This is exactly what I was looking for and thank you!
