I don't know if it's esoteric filesystem week on HN, but I love it.
[1] Yesterday: TabFS – a browser extension that mounts the browser tabs as a filesystem, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34847611 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34847611

- pyinstallwoes 4y agoThat’s really cool
- wpietri 4y agoHoly moly! TabFS is amazing and I missed it. Closing a tab by rming the dir is especially great. Thanks for mentioning it!
- voxadam 4y agoIt really does seem like a natural extension of the Unix maxim of "everything is a file"; I can imagine a modern browser embedded in a Plan 9 or Inferno style OS implementing a "tab as a file" style semantic.
