Rookie numbers tbh.

That's barely two projects that I won't event finish worth of research.

If I want to keep a site longer than a day I bookmark it. I have no clue how anyone can cope with this many tabs, it's like an email backlog but for your browser.

So from a security mindset, this is a nightmare. This person must be a paid plant for Big Cross-Site-Tracking

im a scrub with just around 1k and opening and closing my browser a few times a week.

And here am I, getting twitchy the moment the tab size shrinks. I can't imagine having so many tabs open.

It's bad enough my brain already does that by itself

I use Tab Stash if I'm about to close/restart the browser or I changed the focus of my research, but if I don't wanna lose some keywords or something, I prefer to use KNotes (or any sticky notes) and write why some keywords are important and their context, so I don't have to maintain too many open tabs. Just yesterday I had like 15 tabs and was overwhelmed lol
