Just out of curiosity, why would you want to have 800 open tabs? What is your workflow? Do you use tabs as bookmarks? How do you find open tabs?

- srean 9y agoYeah they are like a volatile bookmarks with a traversable history and a 'this is very interesting but have to save the reading for later' todo list. Once you bookmark a link the history-browsing-trajectory is lost. However once I visit a tab often it becomes a bookmark. There are extensions to organize and search bookmarks.
- avh02 9y agoyou may be a fan of tree-style tabs - used to do me well when i used to be on FF - you get a sense of how you got somewhere. I use vivaldi now - and while i have tabs on the left - i do miss tree-style features.
- proaralyst 9y agoHow do you navigate between your tabs?
- rplnt 9y agoFirefox searches through open tabs by default when you type in the address bar.
- krzyk 9y agoYou just use omnibus to find it, for me it is a temporary bookmark, once when I did cleanup I had 1000 tabs.
- bzbarsky 9y agoIf you type something in the Firefox url bar starting with a "% " (percent, then space) the rest of the string will be treated as a search across the titles and urls of your open tabs. This is what I typically use for navigation.
- jacquesm 9y agoI'm in much the same boat as srean, I do online research on some subject (new subject every week) and open tabs are my way of remembering what I still need to read and keep notes from. 100's of tabs open is really no exception, especially not for subjects with a large online footprint. I use the tree-style tabs plug in and scrapbook to keep my sanity.
