Heya, didn't see this in the ideas pages 1-5:
When I open a large group of tabs form the same website in a bookmark folder with the "open all bookmarks" option, the website where all those tabs lead restricts my access because all tabs get loaded in at once, unintentionally and wastefully straining the website.

I could painstakingly copy-paste the web-addresses of each bookmark into fresh tabs and not hit enter when pasting. But surely that could be automated?
So, I'd like there to be an option in the settings that I can enable so that instead of loading in all bookmarks at once, it instead puts each address of the bookmarks I open into tabs ready to load up once I actually switch to each individual tab. I am aware there are add-ons that try this, but none have worked for me yet.

If you want, you can give this one a try  https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/load-background-tabs-on-select

Seems to work pretty well! Blacklist feature is very nice.
Can't believe I was unlucky enough not to stumble upon this when I searched for this feature.
My thanks and regards.
