User Reviews

Overall, users find Sort Tabs by URL effective at tidying large tab collections and sorting by URL, with a handy toolbar button. It’s generally reliable, but recurring drawbacks include incompatibility with Tab Groups, no domain-based sorting, keyboard shortcut conflicts with Bookmarks, occasional crashes on large tab sets, and missing menu entry in some contexts. Requests include domain-based sorting and better UI/theme support.
Pros
  • Efficiently sorts large numbers of tabs, handling thousands of tabs smoothly.
  • Sorts tabs alphabetically by URL as claimed.
  • Helps reduce tab clutter and reorganize open tabs quickly.
  • Provides a convenient toolbar button to trigger sorting.
  • Generally reliable and works as documented.
Cons
  • Incompatibility with Firefox's built-in Tab Groups feature, causing issues with grouped tabs.
  • Sorting by domain is not supported; only URL-based sorting is available; domain-based sorting is a common request.
  • Keyboard shortcut conflicts: ctrl-shift-o opens the Bookmarks Manager instead of sorting.
  • Potential crashes or performance issues when sorting very large tab sets.
  • In some setups there is no menu entry to trigger sorting, making it unusable.

Worked very good, until I started to use the new FF feature "Tab Group" (built-in, not a plugin) - "Sort Tabs" scrambles the tabs and ignores the groups.
