- (2021-07-03) Yaozu Li: Thank you for developing this extension on chrome. I recently swtiched from Firefox to Chrome since my firefox was bugging, and I realized that chrome does not have the convient way of "ctrl+left click on + sign" to open a new tab next to my current tab. Now I found this extension on StackExchange and it does the job! Hopefully the extension is secured and you won't rob my information haha, but other than that thank you.
- (2020-02-11) Tim Hi: stopped working
- (2019-12-19) Jason Merrill: I've appreciated this extension, but it stopped working recently.
- (2018-10-12) Tony Snark: I liked that it was lighter on memory than "Tab to the Next" (the extension it is inspired by), but it doesn't make tabs opened from bookmarks open to the right like Tab to the Next did. Would be nice to have that option. I like the consistency of all my new tabs always opening to the right of the current one. If anyone else is in the same situation as me, there is another extension called "Tab Position Options" that does this. It's also got a lot of other options you can tinker with if you want more granular control. It's only a tad higher on memory usage than this extension.
- (2018-09-20) Tim Cheng: I want to use this but it says the extension can read your browser history, why would it need to do that?!
- (2016-12-30) Dimitar Pankov: Works perfectly and does exactly what it's designed to do. I've been looking so long for such solution and none of the alternatives like TabsPlus and Tabs Position Options could do it. Thanks!
- (2016-05-20) Jonathan March: Interferes with shift+click in a range of more useful / important contexts (such as extending a selection). So not worth it.
- (2016-04-24) Dwayne Kuan: No longer works
- (2015-10-26) Will Lucic: Thank you! I've been trying to get this functionality for a while now and this does exactly what I want.
