I hope all is well with you. I'm currently exploring avenues to enhance my business portfolio through strategic investments in Chrome extensions, and I've been particularly impressed with yours.
I believe there's a tremendous opportunity for growth and would love to discuss the possibility of acquisition. We can negotiate a fair price and ensure a secure transaction via trusted escrow services like Escrow.com or CryptoExchange.com.

"Discard Other Tabs in this Window" is poor and very rarely works.
Instead I have to switch window and use "Discard Tabs in Other Windows" or "Discard All Other Tabs".
Even then the extension is hit and miss.
Needs lots of improvement for consistency.

Excellent tab suspender. However please add the ability to only retain a certain number of active tabs without the condition of time. And also a manual tab unsuspending page, where the user is required to click on the page of an inactive tab to unsuspend rather than just opening the tab. A similar implementation to the workona extension.
