Riemer de Vries (ID: 000000112ab342a8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/16/2024 When using the old popup menu, unload selected tab(s) just reloads the page, in the right click menu the same option works fine. When in preferences traditional quick access is enabled, enabling anti-mistouch does not work.

NOUM (ID: 000000b853a90d46) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/11/2023 It's way too slow on every first use of a new browsing session. Takes like 10s or more to manually unload a page and if you happen to have changed tab in the meantime, too bad it will unload that instead.
