Review summary

Tab Slideshow WE is praised for its simplicity and usefulness in cycling through tabs, especially helpful for managing multiple email windows. Users appreciate that it restores a feature that was missing since Tab Mix Plus. However, common issues include lack of customizable keyboard shortcuts to control the slideshow, high memory usage due to all tabs being loaded simultaneously, and problems working in full screen mode. Users also request features to auto-start the slideshow on browser launch and to refresh tabs when they appear.

Pros

Useful for managing multiple tabs such as email windows.
Simple and easy to use.
Provides automatic cycling through all open tabs, a feature missing since Tab Mix Plus.
Works well on multiple platforms including Linux Firefox.
Allows for continuous tab slideshow functionality.

Cons

Lacks customizable keyboard shortcuts to pause or toggle the slideshow.
Memory usage is high because tabs need to be loaded in memory at all times.
Does not work properly in full screen mode.
Missing option to start slideshow automatically when Firefox starts.
No built-in feature to refresh tabs each time they are opened in the slideshow.

2022-09-24	Tu*****	Very useful for multiple email windows. It would be nice if there were a customizable key combination to pause all slideshow windows, and a feature to pause the slideshow whenever the window was selected.

2019-05-10	Wi*****	Could you please add a shortkey to toggle addon, e.g. by adding to manifest.json "commands": { "_execute_browser_action": { "suggested_key": { "default": "Ctrl+Shift+B" } } }, It works for me on Linux Firefox 66.0 Thanks.
