What do browsers even let you do this? I feel like it should cap out at like 200 max. Nobody even needs 200 but there's got to be some kind of limit somewhere.
200 is newbie numbers.

I had fifty open one day after working a tech related bug. I wasn't getting anywhere so I closed it out and switched search engines. Less than thirty minutes later I and found a solution.
Too many tabs is a huge distraction. Its also a common thing to see if you are working tech support for a organization. I've seen well over a hundred tabs open on some users browsers.

If you can bg inactive tabs they just become another type of bookmark, because they don't the up any memory

i know that you're suffering but, still, thanks for the laughter ! @[email protected]
Control+Shift+T restores the last closed tab. That solution works lol (but it really feels like it shouldn't)

Bro use the fucking bookmarks feature. Your electric company will appreciate the 10% reduction in grid load.
Firefox only actually allocates memory for loaded tabs. I have >400 open at the moment but the 700MiB of memory are shared between three bloated websites and Firefox itself.

I was wondering why I couldn't find mine. I figured I just had short term memory loss.
Ah you probably rebooted before saving it to long term storage

treestyle tabs helps a lot with tab organization. Reasonably amount of tabs can't really be managed with the default tab interface of any browser (haven't tried the recently added native vertical tabs yet - they also added in tab groups, which I was heavily relying on before they ripped it out a bit over a decade ago. Not sure if I'll find back to my old workflow after all that time, though)
I love the new vertical tabs. I just wish I could select which side of the window the sidebar is placed on per window since I have a browser on each monitor.
I also sort my tabs by entertainment or manuals in the one window, active reading or similar in the main window. That helps sort my 400+ tabs enough and if that's not enough I can always search.
-
Pretty sure Firefox can search for open tabs directly from the Awesome Bar out of the box. Can't remember the specific character that activates that filter on the bar. Maybe ^ or ~
Somebody else mentioned '%' but even without that if the URL matches completely it will default to switching to an open tab with it already open.

Then use bookmarks. We shouldn't design around people using products completely incorrectly.

That or more likely kernel panic.

Would Jesus' bookmark be shaped like a cross (morbid) or a fish (practical)?

Fair enough I have those from time to time, still hoping they make a patch to fix some of them.

Had to check if this was a post from adhsmemes group.

Yea I know, I was being an ass.

My point exactly

It’s so odd to me that this isn’t the default behaviour for all browsers especially Edge. It’s literally alt+tab behaviour but for some reason browser designers decided it wouldn’t work that way.
This works in edge. Alt+tab also cycles between 2 tabs in edge if a previos tab was selected, or between windows if not. Which annoys the hell out of me, going from email to edge, switching to the tab I need to copy from and expecting alt+tab to bring me back to email and instead just goes back to the tab I didn't want.

No such thing
