“Close all tabs” and bookmarks are also your friends.
Yes, book burning is mental hygiene
specially on Android where I manage to open new tabs on accident
If they made bookmarks that would update as you navigate, yes. Until then, no, they’re not a substitute for tabs.
I think that’s what the history is for…
Not at all the same thing. For one, you can open a history entry and then navigate back from that to the page you came from to that page - which there may be several. Tabs preserve per-tab history which makes it superior in many ways to both history and bookmarks.
fair point but in practice, I don’t really see it being useful very often… You could write an extension to implement that feature so that tabs dont crowd your space…
I mean, do whatever works for you, but that sounds kinda unnecessary when you can just use an already existing feature - tabs.
I do use tab, but they are kind of a problem too… I usually have 20+ tabs opened and many of them I never revisit.
Use a tab unloader addon. That way if you don’t revisit then they don’t take up any resources.
I use “Basic automated tab unloader” but there are several.
They would still use my attention and screen real estate, no?
You mean history?
You’re almost there. Imagine a thing that was like a bookmark but also had its own individual history, and also kept track of where you currently are in that history.
Is their anything that implements this?
Yes, I think they’re calling them “tabs”.
My browser has tabs.
