Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser?

I have 2 or 3 open at once at most. If I can’t remember what it’s for, it gets closed. And if I need to find it again, searching my history is easier than searching my open tabs
I just can’t handle tab frenzy
Same. I tend to tidy up my tabs regularly. If I have more than 10 tabs open, I usually don’t care about them any more, so it’s time for them to go. Also, I’m a huge fan of searching the history. It has saved the day more than a few times.
Apparently, some people operate differently. Makes me wonder why.

“i wonder what that article said about the thing i was thinking of. what mas the article about again? …what site was it?”
anyway, ask me about my 400 open tabs

I mean, you can scan the page titles in your history just as easily as you can scan the titles of 400 tabs. So it’s kind of same same if you can’t remember any pertinent details

Some browsers will not keep your history indefinitely (or even more than a month) any more

Tab History shows every instance of a tab, not just 1 for the 300 times you visited it.

Ok that makes sense. It’s not an infinitely growing mess then.
