I commend your tab hoarding. I just want to know how much RAM you have to support that. I have 32 GB, Firefox won't load them until I click on them, and it still struggles at 100 tabs.
I have 64 gb I reboot daily or else the system becomes unusable.
Most tabs aren't loaded since it takes often many gigabytes to display simple text pages in 2025.
I have no way to know how many actually active tabs I have but it's not more than a few dozens and then firefox just starts deleting data from memory as if it could be obtained again later.
