Link Opener - A Simple Tab Session Saver and Restorer

or simply Lobster (Link Opener Browser Save Tab Extension Revisited)

A simple, privacy-friendly tool to save and reopen browser sessions – with tab groups support on Firefox.

✅ Features

• Export all open tabs to a .txt file
• Open links from a .txt file
• Export and import tab groups via .json
• Dark mode toggle
• Minimal UI

Created because I have way too many tabs, wanted more control over sessions, and always wanted to build a browser extension.

🖥️ Why Not Use Built-In Sync Options?

This extension shines in scenarios like:

• Using incognito or privacy-focused browsers
• Working across devices without login/sync
• Wanting to save specific tab groups as named presets
• Creating backups of your browsing sessions
• Avoiding reliance on Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + T or browser restore

About

Built for fun, function, and out of a bit of tab-hoarding desperation.
