Open new tab from pinned tab.
Open new tab from/to container (tabs permission required since 2.0.0).

Right Next also done with very less code which make it has good performance.

Permission Required

optional_permissions

tabs: please give this permission if you using container extensions (since 2.0.0).

End Support

When Mozilla fixed this issue, then this extension has its mission done.

Alternative

If you don't open new tab by middle click, you can simply change these settings:


  browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent: true
  browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent: false

These extensions work well too, but can't handle all situations.

Open Tabs Next to Current - can't handle container tab.
Always Right - can't handle middle click because it simply change your browser settings which affect by the issue mention above.

Extension safety

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.

Right Next does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Low This permission has no access or impact on the user's system or data, thus carrying no risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Right Next has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
