Unload all tabs in a group

[Szcreen]

Would be helpful to have a button in the context menu to unload all the tabs inside the group.

To quickly select all tabs in a group https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/select-tabs-in-group

then you can right click on any selected tab and use the the built-in unload function.

Hi

Is it possible to add the ability to unload/hibernate all tabs from a certain group at once?
For example, by adding this item to the context menu when I right-click on a group

I like the new feature with tab groups, I moved all my work tabs to a group. Let's say the work day ends and I want to do my own thing. But the tabs from the work group continue to work in the background and consume RAM, right? Now they all need to be unloaded one by one or selected via ctrl, but I would really like to just turn off the entire group at once with one click.

The Auto Tab Discard add-on allows unloading an entire tab group in the right-click context menu.

It would be great to unload all tabs in a group by right clicking the group tab

The unload tab option is quite useful in conserving system resources.  There are two features which would take it to the next level.  One is to allow the user to unload all tabs which have been grouped by adding an option in the "Manage Tab Group" menu to unload all tabs in the group.  This would make the unload tab feature easier to manage for large numbers of tabs.  A second feature would be to allow the unloaded status to persist after restarting the browser as all tabs (unloaded and loaded) are reloaded on restarting the browser.  This would be especially useful due to Microsoft's frequently mandated reboots due to new security patches.  You guys are doing a great job - keep Mozilla moving forward!

Hi folks, 
Thank you for the idea!

Right now, we provide the capability to unload all tabs in a group by selecting all tabs, right-clicking, and choosing Unload X tabs option in the tab context menu (rather than tab group context menu). 

We're not yet considering expanding the options in the tab groups context menu, but we'll pass the idea of preserving the option to keep the tab unloaded on restart to the team that worked on tab unloading.

We've also made a quick exploration around adding Unload tabs to the tab group context menu when the Unload tabs capability became available, and have seen some confusion from folks seeing options to ungroup tabs and unload tabs close to each other 😞
