It's strange to me that browsers - both desktop and mobile - aren't more aggressive about "paging out" unused tabs. I end up just restarting Firefox now and then when I'm not ready to do a full cleanup.
Even with the fancy mobile interface you really just need to store a thumbnail (plus the URL and title) for each tab, and even an older iPhone should have little trouble scrolling through thousands of tiny images.
- hhh 4y agoI haven't ever had issues with hundreds of tabs on iOS. It just works for me.
- pbhjpbhj 4y agoFirefox mobile does, it puts things behind an "inactive tabs" title on the tabs page. In Chrome I use a tab suspender extension, in part because there was a bug that bit me alot where it would leak memory of you leave a tab active with a highlight. Don't know if the bug is fixed yet. Tab suspending makes my Surface Pro run better; seems like it shouldn't be needed.
