Tab for a Cause

If been using it in addition to idleforest and it feels great to have some impact just by using my laptop :)

I've been using Tab for a Cause at work for several years now, and it's become a natural part of my daily routine. Since I open a lot of tabs throughout the day, it’s nice to know that something as simple as that can contribute to a good cause. It doesn’t interfere with my workflow at all—just a small adjustment like remembering to go directly to Google when I need to search, since the default Yahoo search doesn’t always give me the results I want. I also enjoy the monthly leaderboard—it’s a ... Show more

Gamification of doing simple things that earn tiny amounts for charity. It all adds up. This hasn't caused me any issues and it's been a source of a nice feeling, if only really that. They also have search and buy for a cause which raises them 4X as much or more. Just a clever idea and well executed

I use Tab for a Cause for work, and have for several years now, since I often open so many tabs during my normal workflow. I like knowing that I'm making a positive impact (even a small one!) just by doing my normal every day work and it's had very minimal impact on my workflow to open up these tabs instead of the standard new tab pages in Google Chrome (the only thing I've had to learn to do is go to Google first when searching, since the yahoo search used for these tabs doesn't often give m...

Works well, the pictures are beautiful, and if we help people by doing what we already usually do all the best. I recommend it.

I've used Tabs for a Cause for over 11 years, and it's a great extension. You passively earn money for your selection out of a group of charities just by opening browser tabs. The landing page is also a useful backdrop for bookmarks, which I use constantly.

Had it for a few months now, approaching a year. Started lagging my PC harder than actual malware, and that isn't a joke or an exaggeration. Could ignore that if it weren't for the fact it A. takes 30% of the 2 million USD it has earned for charities and gives it to itself, and mentions this in one lone place, the fine print. The site needs upkeep, the people need to be payed, but 600k?? B. Gamification, and corruption. They've added multiple different small updates since I first joined this... Show more

The new UI is inconvenient, strangely formatted, and not at all visually appealing. Instead of having bookmarks appear as buttons in the center you can instantly press, you have to open a submenu. Instead of having a visible and central search bar as the focal point, it's shoved into a corner. Its downscaled size means you can only see around 4 words at a time while typing. Not to mention, now you see more of the ads than the actual home page content, and they are framed so strangely. Everyth... Show more

I love tab for a cause, it makes me feel like I'm doing something by doing nothing. However, I am sad because it doesn't work with firefox and I'm trying to move away from some of the companies that make all these causes need so much support. Thanks for making a great thing anyways.

It doesn't work when you have an AdBlocker, just FYI.
