I've been building chrome extensions for 5+ years now and this framework makes the bad parts of developing extensions feel easy.

I'm working on re-writing Partizion to be faster, easier to use, simpler, and more beautiful (beautiful is good design — https://paulgraham.com/taste.html).

After the chrome MV3 migration which was an absolute rigmarole, I lost my taste for beauty. I want to get back to making beautiful software.

Happened in (2021)[https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/issues/1...], and then a few others have forked the extension and tried to revive it, only to eventually sell to nefarious owners or sell user data themselves

How does this keep turning into a "I told you about stairs man" situation? Why are people who fork the extension so susceptible to corruption?

Practical guide with methodology explained

From your username and the information on the website, it looks like you might be the founder. This isn’t a “practical guide with methodology”, it’s a thinly disguised ad for a for-profit extension.

This should’ve been a Show HN instead.

https://www.partizion.io/ is a great bookmark manager / session manager. Privacy focused, auto-saved sessions, and can add new links with the chrome extension.

Checkout https://www.partizion.io/. Find it super useful because it auto-saves sessions (so I can close anything and not worry about losing it) and you can create permanent collections of tabs that you can restore in one click.

Checkout https://www.partizion.io/bookmark-manager. Not free, but a pretty good option for Chrome

The great suspender was removed by google because it was sold to a nefarious buyer and then malicious scripts were implemented. We must be wary of "free" extensions and apps. Partizion is an alternative to The Great Suspender except it is a tab manager, not a tab suspender.

yeah the trust issue is the big downside to any add on.

No zoom out, but has tile like views (grids, lists, kanban, etc.) https://www.partizion.io/

Looks cool, but requires a server to store your open tabs, which is less cool.

It's interesting to see how all these companies got their starts. My personal favourite is Stripe
