Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser?
TranquilTurbulence@lemmy.zip 6 hours agoSurprisingly many people have brought that up. Probably not a coincidence. Maybe that’s the thing I didn’t think of.

People with ADHD (I speak from experience) have shitty working memory, poor organisational skills, are easily distracted, and a tendancy to procrasate.
Therefore you start researching something for work/uni (4tabs) I’ll come back to that after a little YouTube break (+3tabs) I’ll watch those videos later I need to get back to work (+4 tabs that are duplicates of the first 4). Time for home, when do I need to catch the bus (+1) and the first 12 tabs will just stay open till the next day because you know you won’t remember what you were doing.

Oh, so that’s how the numbers go up. Keep on doing that for a week or two, and having only 100 tabs open is an achievement.

Yeah, I was thinking the 30 from your original post is rookie numbers.

Well, a coworker of mine has so many tabs that it was difficult to tell exactly how many there were. The top bar was completely full, so I guess that’s way more than 20. Probably not a hundred yet.

Firefox’s “search in tabs” is an invaluable feature to reduce duplication.
Prefix with ‘%’ in the search bar

You can also use ^ to search your history instead, and do away with the tabs!
