Pin Unpin Tab

Pin Unpin Tab can pin or unpin a tab by: - a long left mouse click anywhere on the webpage (an arguably more efficient alternative to the no longer possible double-click on tab) - a keyboard shortcut - a click on the pin icon on browser toolbar

Pin Unpin Tab is a Firefox WebExtension designed to streamline the process of pinning and unpinning browser tabs. With multiple convenient methods—such as a long left mouse click anywhere on a webpage, a customizable keyboard shortcut (default Alt-P or Ctrl-Shift-P on macOS), or a simple click on the pin icon in the toolbar—users can efficiently manage their tabs without relying on the no longer supported double-click on tabs method.

The extension provides customization options, including setting the duration of the long click, and integrates well with both light and dark themes via its toolbar icon. Note that the long click method doesn't function on Firefox internal pages or the Mozilla Add-ons site due to browser limitations. Overall, Pin Unpin Tab offers a user-friendly and versatile way to control tab pinning, enhancing productivity and browser organization.

Simple but useful, Just missing one thing I cannot find an extension that does this, could you have in the settings the ability to auto pin certain sites? Please and thank you!
