Locking this post. Pretty sure everything that's needed to be said has been said so threads are devolving.

Somebody teach the new boys what a bookmark is pls.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I usually save neither the browsing history neither the opened tabs. I add interesting pages in bookmarks, but rarely check them again.

Should make that a feature

How do you even navigate that many tabs?

People can keep 5-10 things in their short term memory. Anything beyond that you can't feasibly multitask with so it should be a bookmark instead of a tab.

Maybe browsers should merge the two functions. (We already have pinned tabs too)

You can search through your open tabs by typing % followed by space in the search bar. I often do that since I tend to reference a lot of documentation/merge requests/admin interfaces/etc. and end up with quite a few tabs in a working session (usually clear them out the next day). Nowhere near 7000, though. Maybe 50.

Should have used OneTab
