    Most browsers are now “sleeping” tabs so it’s only saving the URL, and not any of the data/objects on it. It’s kind of necessary given that modern websites adware has the system requirements of Crysis.

    A year or so ago, I started using an addon to put tabs in categories/windows because of this. Then I added more categories. And more.

    I have easily a few hundred tabs now. My “general” category has maybe 60? My (unsaved) porn category, shit 300+? Then I’ve got server management, shopping, and a few others, with like 25ish each. And then I was like, ah ha, I’ll be smart, I’ll save things as bookmarks so stuff I’m shopping or researching or whatever is moved out of the way until I need it, then I’ll export and use linkding to manage it all. Fuck it, I’ll just use it for all categories as I clean up this mess slowly. Well long story short now I have a fuckload of tabs and 1k+ bookmark links. But the good news is I can simultaneously link you details about implementing Fail2Ban, info on a dozen docker containers, show you my progress so far on locally-hosted security systems, and a dozen tabs about whatever kink you want, without searching for anything.

      Is managing your tabs and searching for a particular one faster than using a search engine though?

    vertical tabs for the win! I switched recently and it ignited this habit for me 😅

    I have 21 tabs open right now, including this one. That’s on my personal machine. Don’t ask how many I have open on my work machine that I haven’t rebooted in a few weeks.

    So genuine question, what are the benefits or reasons for having multiple tables open rather than saving as bookmarks or links? It just doesn’t make any sense to me but seems to be pretty common for people to do any more and I want to understand

    Hey, guys? Bookmarks. Every browser has nesting, organizable, searchable bookmark folders. Get your laundry off the chair, fold it, and put it in drawers.
