Introducing Sleeping Tabs Experiment: Improving Memory Usage in Microsoft Edge

Today i was lucky to find an extention to disable the terrible funktion that makes Chrome and edge totally unrialable to display critical running webpages always in the background. Finally. thanks to this thread, i was able to find the fault by the edge://discards/

The only way to solve the problem now is to use an extention to bring the browser back to be reliable for us that need it to be reliable for critical running applications.

Sorry that i blamed the sleeping tabs to be the cause of the problem. The problem seems to be from chrome all the way back to 2015 when they introduced the tab discarding experiment: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/09/tab-discarding

The solution did not need any extention, it is just to toggle the Auto discard setting in edge://discards/

Now i know. Please inform the world about this, the people deserves to know about this solution to make edge reliable for critical running applications!
