What kind of psychopath has that many tabs open!?
I take personal offense to that. How do you not?
I bookmark stuff I need at a later time, or will need again, and read the stuff I want to read now and close the tab when I'm done.
I close all the tabs regularly. Bookmark for those that I need to save for longer than one session
I keep tabs open as a sort of "read page later" list. I never seem to get to reading them though.
So do I, for a few days. If I haven't read it by then, I'll either bookmark for later or just close. I pretty much never have more than 10-15 active tabs ever.
I got to that once, on mobile I've never worked out the rule for when FF opens a new tab vs opening a site in your current tab. They just kind of silently accumulate.
Yeah that's the problem I have, started while ago. It opens a new tab instead switching to existing tab.
Yeah it's a bit weird with FF, I just purge open tabs for unnecessary tabs daily.
There's a setting to auto-close tabs after a certain amount of time.
"Oh no! What if I need it later"

I like to be in control of what gets closed and when, so nothing gets closed before I bookmark it if need it.
