It would be so, so easy to guard against this if they would just give people:
about:tabs
... which would be a plain text listing of all the URLs of all the tabs you have open.
You could just copy and paste it to a file or whatever.
Instead, we need to dig several directories deep into /Library (or whatever, depending on OS) and then use JSON tools to export ... I've already lost most people.
Go search for "how can I export tabs" or "how can I save tab urls" and you'll see thousands of people trying (usually in vain) to achieve this very, very simple thing.

- Anthony-G 5y agoI know you don’t want to install an extension but for the benefit of others, my solution was to install the Copy as Markdown extension¹ which provides all tabs in current window as a list of Markdown links. It suits me because I often like to take notes and save them as Markdown – as well as providing a backup list of open tabs (one list per window). ¹ https://github.com/yorkxin/copy-as-markdown https://github.com/yorkxin/copy-as-markdown
