Another tab manager when OneTab and Workona already dominate the space.

Strengths
  • Hot number keys 0-9 for direct tab access is a nice touch
  • Keyboard-first design matches terminal workflows power users already know
Weaknesses
  • Tab management is extremely crowded with OneTab, Workona, Toby, Session Buddy
  • Keyboard navigation already solved by Vimium and Vimium C extensions

Target Audience

Post Description

I built Tab-da because I could move quickly around my computer, but kept losing momentum in Chrome, where I spend most of my time.

My tabs had become another to-do list I never quite finished. Existing browser features helped me store, group, or hide tabs, but not actually work through them.

Tab-da is my attempt to make Chrome feel more like the rest of the system: keyboard-first, fast to navigate, and built around finding tabs, moving through related pages, and getting closer to tab zero.

Not going to lie, after building this, Chrome feels way more like an operating system to me than ChromeOS.

I’d love feedback from people with the same tab problem.

Keyjump – a keyboard-first new tab for power-users

You press one key and land where you need to be — single-key shortcuts, page organization, and site-specific search templates are the core wins. Local-first storage with an optional account sync and an in-page overlay for saving links shows practical thinking for real workflows; it’s not revolutionary, but it looks and feels like something a power user would actually keep open.
