In response to some of the suggestions:
1. Tab groups: I have been an extensive user of tab groups in the past (when it was native in Firefox); it’s very helpful if your tabs cleave nicely into less than a dozen or so projects/themes, and you have no more than a few hundred tabs.
2. Tree style tabs: The extensions I’ve tried tend to be very slow and non-ergonomic for my use case.
3. The % trick: Didn’t know this; thanks!
4. Bookmarks: Yes, but browser bookmarks tend to be where information goes to die. It’s also very hard to organize in a useful way, or attach notes to it. How about some of the ideas in my parent comment, as a spiritual extension of bookmarks?
5. Amna: Sibling comment by @catchmeifyoucan. This is the first I’m hearing of Amna; seems quite interesting at first glance https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23780781 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23780781
6. One-tab: Interesting, wasn’t aware!
(I’ll keep updating this comment instead of branching off my responses; hopefully useful at least as a distilled collection of suggestions)
- eclipseo76 6y ago> 2. Tree style tabs: The extensions I’ve tried tend to be very slow Try Sidebery: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sidebery/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sidebery/
- epage 6y agoWhat does Sidebery offer over Tree Style Tabs?
- Zecc 6y agoI have both, and while I haven't used Sidebery as much as I should (since I've known and become accustomed to TST first), I can say at least this: Sidebery has tabs groups. These display as icons to the side of the tab tree, and when you select one it will show the tree of tabs in that group only.
- eliza1wright 6y agoI agree that bookmarks are a relic. Workona (http://workona.com/ http://workona.com/) might be of interest to you. It combines tab groups with resources (our term for bookmarks). But unlike regular bookmarks, resources can be grouped, ordered, or reorganized easily. They display important info at a glance (favicon, page name, type of object like GDoc). They won't open a duplicate tab if one is already open, and you can even replace your open tabs with a different set of resources (you choose which ones). Oh, and you can share them. So, bookmarks but redesigned for modern work. Would love to hear what you think if you decide to try them.
