That closes the current tab
And goes back to the previous tab
Only if you have the addon Select After Closing Current Which I have, but I don't want to close random tabs, because I'm trying to get back to my previous tab, not read the current tab and determined if I still need it.
Select After Closing Current is great for allowing pulling a tab out of a window, and have that window go back to its previous tab
But Select After Closing Current, is very annoying if you close tabs, you might want to close several tabs in a row , but if you do that, each tab you close causes it to jump around to the previous tab, instead of the right most tab. Really hope I can make at some point a version that can do one but not the other
Just use Control+Shift+Tab to go forward again ;)
No, it goes to the previous tab you had opened without any extensions. Your use case of “needing” 2k tabs is not reasonable. Close the tab to go back to the one you were just on.
