Not even criticizing, but how do you manage 130 tabs? How do you find tabs you're looking for? You must have some kind of system!

Not sure how he does it, but I don't manage those. I just don't close tabs (I usually forget to do it :), so after week or two I end up with 200-300 tabs (my record is 900). I tried to use chrome once and it ate all my ram, and they were saying it uses less ram then firefox back then.

A few people use Tree-Style Tabs, which organize them as a tree structure, similar to directories. It encourages using tabs instead of bookmarks, which have a terrible UX (in all browsers, not picking on Firefox here). https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-tab/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-ta...

  I do that and I hit 1000 tabs. Once a week I close and reopen or it gets too slow.

  Tree Style Tabs is the primary reason why I stick with Firefox. Without it, I wouldn't even know where to begin managing the relevant sites/info I encounter when reading up on diverging lines-of-thought. For me, it is /the/ absolute killer feature for browsers. ---Alex

You can use the Awesome Bar to search open tabs: just prefix your query with '%'. More search tips can be found here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/awesome-bar-search-firefox-bookmarks-history-tabs https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/awesome-bar-search-fire...

Firefox lets you search your open tabs (urls/titles/etc). The simplest way to find the tab you're looking for is to do just that: search.
