Just bumping for similar request. The Great Suspender is "okay", but it fails to keep icons and previews, even when the option is enabled (in their defense, the option is labeled "experimental"). An option under the Tab settings for a auto-hibernate delay would be positively delightful, and would even make the browser a whole lot more efficient, if it was enabled by default (rather than when memory <25%, which yes, is far too late). Any tab inactive for more than 20 minutes that isn't playing sound should be paged off (though I set TGS for 5mins myself). A check box for enabling the hibernation of pinned tabs, and a context to disable hibernating of particular tabs, in said mix, would also be nice.

That would be a great solution to the memory hungry Vivaldi.

@potmeklecbohdan yes, you are right.

That would be great! Not just for messengers but also for time trackers and music panels, so they're ready when you need them.

@dannyswift Please vote for the existing request: Speed Dial Open All in Tiled Tab Stack If you use sessions, they can include tab-stacks and/or tiled tab groups. You will still have to right-click to hibernate the tab stack

This should be a default behavior, same with open a bunch of bookmarks from a folder.

Maybe integrate this in a 2-step-option: Do not auto-load hybernated tabs without explicit refresh Skip hybernated tabs on cycling (step 1 must be active to enable) to still allow predictable fixed scroll distance when cycling between tabs.

@goedl said in Hibernation by default: here is no way to check if a tab is currently set on hibernating There is. Settings, Tabs, Tab Display, Dim icon when Hibernated.

I see the tab snooze as a light step of a larger monitoring tool for which I've make a suggestion here.

Individual "hibernation prevention" per tab would be brilliant solution.

Bumping because I just recently got around to using quick commands, I typed "tab" and saw plenty of tab commands, but not the one I wanted (hibernate background tabs). It would be super useful for me, as I often browse in fullscreen with tabs hidden, so to get to this command I have to press f11, wait for the window to redraw (have an older computer) before the tabs become visible so I can rightclick on the tab bar.

OK, i probably found the reason why there is no internet for 30 seconds on "de-hibernation" of Windows 10 with Opera. I deactivated, stopped the service superfetch with services.msc and set start type to manual, nit automatic. After restart from hibernation now i got Internet at once! This could be the solution. If Windows gets slower through deactivating superfetch is still not clear. I think it is useful at all, but not for Opera, all Chrome Browser engines running with Blink, a fork of the WebKit engine. This i have to report to Microsoft. So i will test it a while.
