I guess I'm missing the point because it seems to me like almost all of this can be accomplished in native Firefox. If I want to search my open tabs I just type a % in the address bar with my query and it searches my tabs. If I want to search for a bookmark (which doesn't seem meaningfully different from a star) I use a * instead of %. ^ is for history. For recently visited tabs I can ctrl+tab. Clean is basically close all except pinned but it also includes the tab playing audio.

For the navigation of recent history there is the Tab Session Manager extension.

Oh I wished searching tabs (%) weren't broken by Mozilla's extension "Firefox Multi-account Containers"

Too much is broken by that extension, I uninstalled it.

I use Multi-Account Containers all the time, in every profile, on every machine.

So I wonder: what features do you use, which are broken by this extension, and which I am therefore missing out on?

(Aside from GP's searching tabs with %, which I didn't know was broken but does have a workaround in Sidebery)
