I've just counted and I have 74 Firefox windows open... god knows how many tabs that is...
Yes Mr President, I have found the source of climate change
You might want to talk to a therapist.

I am the danger!
Damn this gives me anxiety but makes me feel better at the same time.
It's cut off because it's 1204
FYI Auto tab discard is what allows this monstrosity to exist. I've hit 5k tabs before Firefox freezes or crashes on my decade old i7 with 16gb ram.

I mean 8 windows alone are anoying enough. How are you supposed to find your main one, without circulating through all of them?
Each window serves a different purpose, and tabs in each window are usually grouped together so that they're somewhat related.

Only 27?
You're a normal, functional person.
Firefox: you have βΎοΈ tabs because why bother counting above 100
It happens so faaaast
27? My phone has so many tabs open that it only shows a ":D" as the number.
Have... Have I found my people?
Firefox on mobile says "β".
I just did a purge and I'm down to 4. It'll be interesting to see how fast it gets back to :D

More than I thought.

I use Firefox and I'm kind of old school, I don't usually leave tabs open.
I just have a bookmark folder for temporary bookmarks. All 500 of them.
And here's me who uses tab groups but ends up putting most of my random tabs in random tab groups so it ends up being unorganised
Stop attacking me and my "ToDo Sort" bookmark folder... >:(
27? Those are rookie numbers.
I believe I have between 100 and 200 open tabs. Thatβs just on my main browser. Iβll get back to them, I swear
I'm actually, actively using that much. They're all about Nextcloud, Nginx, Gitlab, Plex, etc. Docs, issues, tutorials, wikis.
Rookie numbers
Should be moving to Firefox, chrome is like a toxic girlfriend that's evil to the core but tries to keep you with gaslighting

It's funny seeing a tweet of someone I know irl on Lemmy.
But as I told him when he first posted this 27 tabs is nothing. I've had hundreds. Firefox doesn't even flinch the absolute Chad of a browser it is.
Firefox is better about it, but it doesn't stop me from having several GB of RAM eaten up by all my tabs and windows.
I gave up on tab management ages ago. Current window has 144 tabs, with a total of 5670 tabs spread across 50 windows.
I swear I donβt have a problem, I can stop any time I want >.>
I mean this genuinely; how do you even navigate that many tabs? Like, if you are honest with yourself can you truthfully say that you can easily find what you are looking for between 50 windows with an average of more than 100 tabs each? I max out at like 30 tabs between a few windows and I find myself lost when navigating them
I'd assume Firefox, where when you start entering an address in your nav bar, it first suggests already open tabs to switch to.
I find this much more reliable than the search bar finding something from history. I don't do/need bookmarks
Firefox also searches bookmarks first after tabs and before history, so it's really same difference...
Yeah I guess. Bookmarks feel like they pile up more than tabs and it's tough to prune ones that don't work anymore
Firefox, but I use the tree style tabs addon. Brings all of them into a vertical sidebar, and I can collapse and organize them easily.
A large chunk of the tabs are projects that I will βdefinitely revisit one day I swearβ usually contained into their own window.

27? I've got around 80 right now and 30,000 bookmarks.
You left off a 0
I have over 300
I will never understand the need for a shit load of tabs for personal use. Work/school stuff, sure, but having tabs open for stuff "in case I need it later" is insane. Bookmark it.
I have vertical tabs, so I can see ~30 tabs clearly on one window. Long time non-visited tabs also use no resources. Bookmarking would just be one more click, moving the tab somewhere not easily visible.

yeah 27 is bush league tabs
And now flushing on exit makes me feel a part of a minority.
27?? My phone browser has 4x that alone....
More like "yes, all :D"
I had to start using bookmarks again because I had tabs open for months
I am more of a emotional support bookmark guy
...27 would be an accomplishment for me... I have tabs in the hundreds
