Advice Request Brave doesn't make a good job freezing tabs compare to edge

[aidunno]

Hi,

I like Brave, but I keep open a lot of tabs. In this case, Edge does a good job freezing them, Brave does not. Maybe I'll try Vivaldi.

Why can Brave be more brave to freeze tabs?

Hi there,

Brave's primary focus is on privacy and ad-blocking, which might affect its tab freezing efficiency. However, you can try adjusting settings or using extensions to improve tab management. Your feedback is valuable and I'm sure the Brave team would appreciate it for future updates.

IDK man. Maybe try using some of Brave flags. From what you are saying, it means that Edge is more aggressive than Brave on the tab suspend function.

It is because brave just implement Google Chrome's memory saver feature, which doesn't determine the period of time for inactive tab to activate it, but Microsoft Edge and Vivaldi Browser both of them have inactive option set to After 1 Hour Idle.

Ah ok... In Edge I enabled freezing after 5 minutes

For me, Brave Team has to work on this. How we can tell them?

You can send them a request on:

But Brave Browser main focus on privacy not features, so if tab freezing more important to you the only options will be Microsoft Edge and Vivaldi.

Waterfox is just a Firefox clone, it will not beat Microsoft Edge in tab sleeping.
