I just saw a coworker with something like 30 tabs open in Chrome. I also know someone who regularly hits the 500-tab limit on their phone, though I suspect that’s more about being messy than anything else.
When I’m researching something, I might have 10-50 tabs open for a while, but once I’m done, I close them all. If I need them again, browser history is there.
Why do people keep so many tabs open? Is there a workflow or habit I’m missing? Do they just never clean up, or is there a real benefit to tab hoarding? I’m genuinely curious. Why do people do that?
Neat. Does it somehow save session info along with the link?
Haven’t used it enough to know. In any case, the link list stays with the browser even if I restart. Is that good enough, or were you looking for something more granular?
Eh just curious about the session info (what all that entails I’m not 100% on). I just know in Firefox tabs retain session info which keeps you logged in typically for sites where that’s a thing
Oh that sort of login session stuff. Nah, I don’t think it saves any of that. As far as I can tell, it’s just a link. Nothing more. If you’re logged in somewhere, the cookies should allow you to continue where you left off, but they will expire at some point.
