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.
That’s why I use a tab stashing addon on my browser.
History->restore recently closed
Alexandria gets rebuilt
55…?
555?
I think I’m closer to 5555…
:)
I think in both FF and Chrome you can just go to menu, history and then recently closed windows.
restore session
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.
My life just lost all its risk.
55 tabs, that is some serious gooning. If it is not private/incognito tabs this would not be an issue…
Control + Shift + T (reopen closed tab)
Usually that opens the whole window, or just press that 55+ times
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.
Did I get it backwards… (Oops)
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.
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.
Also, bookmarks exist for exactly this reason
Funnily for me it’s like “oh no shit … oh well whatever”
There’s honestly something perverted about people’s need to brag about this.
Just stop. We don’t care that you don’t understand how browsers work and feel the need to keep 1500 tabs open at once.
Speaking about a problem or difficulty you have is not (always) bragging. It can be a sane way to share about it with other concerned persons. You know, that’s how we feel understood, and how sometime we find solutions.
55 is rookie numbers
My Firefox session is so big I sometimes have to restore it manually because clicking Restore Session simply makes my browser crash
No joke. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup
I have tabs there that I haven’t seen in a year
If you feel like reducing that little by little, Go to random tab is your friend !
Nice, great way to spice up all the porn tabs. Dopamine on dopamine lfg 🌶️.
Sounds like a fun way to clean up!
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…
Wait what? You can’t use tabs? This sounds scary.
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
Get help bruh.
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 ?
