Hello HN!

The Popup Tab Switcher is an attempt to bring the power of your system app switcher to a browser. The extension shows you a popup with last active tabs when you press its shortcut (Alt + Y by default). You cycle through them by holding Alt and pressing Y. By releasing the Alt key you switch to the chosen tab. This is like switching between apps in Windows (Alt + Tab) and in macOS (Cmd + Tab).

Also, when you close an active tab, you will be placed to the previously active one. It is more helpful than the default Chrome's behaviour, which activates the nearest tab.

You can delegate the default switching between tabs (Ctrl + Tab) to the extension, see how https://github.com/dvdvdmt/popup-tab-switcher#replace-defaul...

Thanks for you time, any feedback is welcome!
