    Once I’m around 20 I start to feel overwhelmed and just close them all, and start again. Selective pruning takes too much effort. I’ll find what I was looking for again

      Unless it was a private browsing session and now you can’t find that one video again.

    I think in both FF and Chrome you can just go to menu, history and then recently closed windows.

    For Firefox Ctrl, Shift + D, it bookmarks all of your open tabs in a new folder.

    Do it every week? Wish I could know how to make it do itself everyday.

    I can fill the tab row and after that every tab decreases efficiency. If I can type where to go faster than I can find the old tab, what is the point.

      Ctrl + Shift + N in Firefoxen will reopen an entire closed window. Handy if you have multiple windows open but only closed one. Related to Ctrl + N for a new window.

          Is it different in Chromium based browsers? I just tested by closing a window with a few tabs, and T only brought back a tab from the remaining window, not the window I’d just closed.

    55 tabs, that is some serious gooning. If it is not private/incognito tabs this would not be an issue…

      Bookmarks are a thing. Then just open them up as a new tab group. Does FF do tab groups? I’m on mobile right now.

        You’ll find this hilarious

        I used bookmarks for a while to bookmark my tabs and save them as text links

        But as far as I know you can only do that one window at a time and…

        I have so many windows…

            Oh but I can

            I do use many tabs

            I have entire windows full of tabs

            I have two browsers full of windows full of tabs

            I’ve been meaning to quit Google Chrome for two years

            I can’t

            There’s tabs in it

            I cleared them at one point but then my Firefox was so full of tabs that I used Chrome for a while

            So now it’s full of tabs again

            I am a tab hoarder

            Also… I could have put these sentences in a paragraph but… I just feel like if I put them on separate lines, they’ll be easier for me to spot when I need them.

            I have a serious problem

    When I do IT support for someone and I see they have more than 4 tabs open or (even worse) I see they have their entire desktop full of icons… It gives me severe anxiety and I go into extreme sarcasm and I have to give them so much shit or my brain will fall apart.

      Funny, I despise icons on the desktop and never have a single one on there. But the number of my tabs is in the thousands (across multiple windows).

        You have a Desktop? I haven’t used a classical Desktop to launch my apps in like 2-3 years.

        Why search with my eyes, when I can just launch my apps by searchimg for the APP in an APP launched triggered by a keybind.

        I never see my desktop, why loosing screen space when you can have everything in full screen, alt-tab around apps and launch everything by pressing META and typing your app’s name ?
