why do you have so many tabs open? if i need to see something then i save it to bookmarks or session buddy. How long will it take you to see the content of that

  But why do you save it in bookmarks? With tabs it’s right there where I left it. Same scroll state, same visual content. Why go through the hassle of bookmarking if tabs are already built in and work well? With bookmarks you lose so much important context. Our minds just don’t work well on lists of links As I said it’s important the OS works the same way. I always have on the left most space my utility window for example with messengers and mail tabs open I always have localhost for development for each project on the left most tab followed by the most common docs and tickets I need throughout the project. And then over time I build up tabs to the right. And naturally the ones in the far right are the latest ones so when I come back to the project that often helps recalling what was done last And if it becomes too much and the tabs are still relevant then I just extract the middle part between localhost+docs on the one side and the latest research on the right and out it in its own window in the background So essentially I use all the dimensions there are: - within the tabs there is an order - within the space there is an order (left half, right half on 34” wide screen) - in depth there is an order (windows all the way to the back are the oldest and will be culled from time to time) - and then there is the spaces themselves which are mainly for different projects
