      My wife taught that there was a limit to the number of tabs you could have on Safari on an iphone. I had no clue that was possible.

    27? My phone has so many tabs open that it only shows a “:D” as the number.

      Firefox on mobile says “∞”.

      I counted the tabs on the phone browser I use for reading user submitted stories…471 tabs in total…
      More than I thought.

      I just did a purge and I’m down to 4. It’ll be interesting to see how fast it gets back to :D

          I mean if you have over 5000 tabs open, your system is probably smoking weed and drinking molten salt, just to keep cool.

          Bob knows that my system can’t really function with more than about 250 tabs open.

            Firefox gives up keeping open tabs up to date. I’ve had 5000 tabs open without any slowdown. But I do realise this is about Chrome…

    I use Firefox and I’m kind of old school, I don’t usually leave tabs open.

    I just have a bookmark folder for temporary bookmarks. All 500 of them.

      And here’s me who uses tab groups but ends up putting most of my random tabs in random tab groups so it ends up being unorganised

    I believe I have between 100 and 200 open tabs. That’s just on my main browser. I’ll get back to them, I swear

      I’m actually, actively using that much. They’re all about Nextcloud, Nginx, Gitlab, Plex, etc. Docs, issues, tutorials, wikis.

        Same. Well I’d have to add pihole, retropie, various book list, a doom wad project, and countless how to do x on Mint pages. 90 tabs in Firefox atm. I’m happy because it’s under 100 'cos the ∞ symbol annoys me.

    Should be moving to Firefox, chrome is like a toxic girlfriend that’s evil to the core but tries to keep you with gaslighting

    I gave up on tab management ages ago. Current window has 144 tabs, with a total of 5670 tabs spread across 50 windows.

    I swear I don’t have a problem, I can stop any time I want >.>

      I mean this genuinely; how do you even navigate that many tabs? Like, if you are honest with yourself can you truthfully say that you can easily find what you are looking for between 50 windows with an average of more than 100 tabs each? I max out at like 30 tabs between a few windows and I find myself lost when navigating them

        I’d assume Firefox, where when you start entering an address in your nav bar, it first suggests already open tabs to switch to.

          I find this much more reliable than the search bar finding something from history. I don’t do/need bookmarks

            Firefox also searches bookmarks first after tabs and before history, so it’s really same difference…

              Yeah I guess. Bookmarks feel like they pile up more than tabs and it’s tough to prune ones that don’t work anymore

        Firefox, but I use the tree style tabs addon. Brings all of them into a vertical sidebar, and I can collapse and organize them easily.

        A large chunk of the tabs are projects that I will “definitely revisit one day I swear” usually contained into their own window.

      Finally someone who can compete with my 1100 tabs in 50 windows! About time I found some competition :-D

    It’s funny seeing a tweet of someone I know irl on Lemmy.

    But as I told him when he first posted this 27 tabs is nothing. I’ve had hundreds. Firefox doesn’t even flinch the absolute Chad of a browser it is.

      Firefox is better about it, but it doesn’t stop me from having several GB of RAM eaten up by all my tabs and windows.

    27? I’ve got around 80 right now and 30,000 bookmarks.
