Look, it's not self control. Too many tabs just scare me.

I'm scared of them too, it's just too late for me haha.

Just close them. Can always do another search when you really need it. It'll sit in your history anyway.

I've never found searching browsing history to be very reliable. I guess it's just a preference.

I use multiple profiles. Got both personal and work ones for both me and the wife, close the windows when they're not active, and they are set to keep track of the tabs. But keeping them open? Hell no. And I'm retired now. It's been six months since I've used the work profile.

If you want to do profiles (in Firefox), add -p to the shortcut's target line, at least in windows. I think. It's been a while since I set it up. It's -p somewhere

I'm the same. Too many tabs confuses me and I start clicking around forgetting what I was doing. Keep it to a minimum.
