I just saw a coworker with something like 30 tabs open in Chrome. I also know someone who regularly hits the 500-tab limit on their phone, though I suspect that’s more about being messy than anything else.
When I’m researching something, I might have 10-50 tabs open for a while, but once I’m done, I close them all. If I need them again, browser history is there.
Why do people keep so many tabs open? Is there a workflow or habit I’m missing? Do they just never clean up, or is there a real benefit to tab hoarding? I’m genuinely curious. Why do people do that?
I keep seeing people talk about tabs lagging their devices, but I have never had that since 2008. Is that a safari thing?
firefox mobile. Only when I’m scrolling through the list of tabs.
Huh, I’ve never had that happen. My 8 year old phone has difficulty with opening the home screen, but the tab list has always been smooth as butter.
