I prefer emotional support Firefox tabs

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I've just counted and I have 74 Firefox windows open... god knows how many tabs that is...

blink twice if you’re in danger

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?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 ♾️ tabs because why bother counting above 100

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

It happens so faaaast

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 years ago (4 children)

27? My phone has so many tabs open that it only shows a ":D" as the number.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Have... Have I found my people?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Firefox on mobile says "∞".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I just did a purge and I'm down to 4. It'll be interesting to see how fast it gets back to :D

I counted the tabs on the phone browser I use for reading user submitted stories...471 tabs in total...
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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Stop attacking me and my "ToDo Sort" bookmark folder... >:(

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

27? Those are rookie numbers.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I believe I have between 100 and 200 open tabs. That’s just on my main browser. I’ll get back to them, I swear

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I'm actually, actively using that much. They're all about Nextcloud, Nginx, Gitlab, Plex, etc. Docs, issues, tutorials, wikis.

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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 don’t have a problem, I can stop any time I want >.>

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I'd assume Firefox, where when you start entering an address in your nav bar, it first suggests already open tabs to switch to.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I find this much more reliable than the search bar finding something from history. I don't do/need bookmarks

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Firefox also searches bookmarks first after tabs and before history, so it's really same difference...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah I guess. Bookmarks feel like they pile up more than tabs and it's tough to prune ones that don't work anymore

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

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 β€œdefinitely revisit one day I swear” usually contained into their own window.

27? I've got around 80 right now and 30,000 bookmarks.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

You left off a 0

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

I have over 300

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

And now flushing on exit makes me feel a part of a minority.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

27?? My phone browser has 4x that alone....

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

More like "yes, all :D"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I had to start using bookmarks again because I had tabs open for months

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I am more of a emotional support bookmark guy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

...27 would be an accomplishment for me... I have tabs in the hundreds
