chrome://discards was never implemented on Linux.

@georgesak to triage/dupe

Automatic discarding is not yet available on Linux, but chrome://discards will be very soon.

Isn't `chrome://discards` a part of the "Automatic discarding" feature? Shouldn't they come together? Any estimate on which Chrome/Chromium version will bring these to linux?

chrome://discards gives an overview of tabs and their discard state, and allows the user to manually discard. Automatic discarding happens when memory is running low. That part is missing on Linux. It is currently being worked on, but unfortunately I don't have a firm timeline (hopefully in the next 3-4 months).

The following revision refers to this bug:

Enable chrome://discards on Linux.

Tab manager was enabled on Linux a while ago but  chrome://discards was never made available on that platform. This CL fixes that.

Note that automatic discarding is still not available on Linux due to the lack of memory pressure subsystem on that platform.

Shouldn't it at least get to be listed in `Unavailable Experiments`?

Any news on this? Or this feature was replaced with something else?
