Firefox isn't with useful tool, which is tabs suspender, it saves of much hardware consume and doesn't allow your PC stay slowness and/or your own internet, because tabs can consume internet and recourses in background without you use it, so that's important and should be in all popular browsers including Firefox. I recommend they base on auto tab discard and possibly performance tool (by Microsoft Edge), because auto tab discard extension is really complete and very useful, mainly it saves where you stop on certain time video and performance tool saves much your recourses on your computer and is very efficient:

I believe the unloading should be automated in addition to it being a manual feature.

Usually this feature is needed when there are tens of tabs open and at that stage it is difficult to manually unload each open tab.  Please check equivalent implementation in Chrome and Edge browsers

@perladuenas1wonderful news! 🎆

I just tried, it works as expected - my Youtube tab disappeared from the list of processes (-200mb).

Is there a plan to make this process automatic?

I downloaded the latest nightly, but I don't see the ability to unload when I right click a tab.

Also, it might be nice to have an option to immediately suspend new tabs until viewed.
