But then loading an unloaded tab reloads the page, does it not? Or does it go strictly by the cached version? If it is the former, then it should load the newest comments.
It opens it again as a new/refreshed tab, though it does it automatically at the postponed time and so it’s more convenient than having to do it manually (especially when you snooze several tabs)
Oh I see so there really is no difference functionally aside from the fact that the native functionality is manual restoration while the addon functionality is automatic restoration?
Er…sorry. I guess what I meant by that is that from what you tell me it seems that there is virtually no difference between what the native “tab unloading” function is and what the addon’s “tab snooze” function is, that difference being that the former requires manually reactivating a tab while the latter can do it at a specific time/duration like an alarm clock.

Is that about right?
Right, though I believe that when you unload a tab it stays there? With the snooze thing it closes the tab and reopens later
Yes, it stays there.
That’s really cool that the snooze thing makes it go away!
