Probably the best suspender extension, especially because it creates screenshots of the suspended websites. ❯ Bug: For example, if "Suspend Window" is executed, then the Tab Icon does usually not display the suspended state (e.g. the icon is not semi-transparent and "Visualize suspend status on Tab Icons" are missing) ❯ Suggestion: The "Visualize suspend status on Tab Icons" display extremely tiny blue / green dots, they are almost invisible.
