Reading through the web page actually got me more interested than I thought I'd be but at the end of the day my browser reigns supreme. I can modify web pages with extensions, I can put my tabs anywhere, and I have access to everything in one big "pile" which I see as an advantage. I'd drive myself crazy trying to remember which app the tab I'm thinking of is open in (Did I open that from slack or from my email?). I also think this takes a level of buy-in that I'm just not willing to do. If I wasn't programming then I might be more interested in this but I need the full browser for my work and looking up docs or help on an error I'm getting doesn't seem like it'd play well with this. I do like the integrations with you calendar/agenda but it's just not for me.

This is actually great for me to know, and thank you for saying something about it. I have also been hearing from users of the product that a "show all tabs" functionality would be valuable in case they lose track of where they are. I was thinking of adding that option in case occasionally you just want to see everything in one shot. Ideally, if you are going task by task, you would only see tabs open to complete a particular task. However, I can see how sometimes you might just want to see it all.

  Just wanted to follow up on this with an update. In the latest release of Floutwork that rolled out yesterday, you can now press a button on the tab bar to "show all tabs." While Floutwork defaults to showing only tabs within the web apps you use to complete a task, allowing you to stay focused, you can always press the button to see all tabs. This feature should help you get oriented, especially if you occasionally lose track of where all the tabs are.

  +1 for this. you can model it like tab groups (one per app) and show all would just consolidate all tab groups. perhaps showing all of them but being able to still view which groups they are in

    I agree, it can definitely be useful. I will push something out around this soon!

  you can also consider task based tab groups. sometimes a task can span multiple apps and it's nice to view it all at a glance. a task view would let you see the tabs and apps related to the task

    I do want to implement this, thank you! It would be cool to give users options for how they want their tabs grouped.

If your browser reigns supreme, try out this personal web browser copilot I built that helps organize your tabs and notes by plugging into your browser. Even in the beta it can vastly improve your ability to focus, brainstorm, and reduce the time it takes to context-switch. Project White Rabbit: www.pwr.builders

I wonder, if something similar can be implemented as a browser extension
