How much ram do they have?
in case you're not aware: modern browsers don't actually keep all tabs loaded all the time.
-
all of it
I was wondering why I couldn't find mine. I figured I just had short term memory loss.

My brain can't handle more than a dozen open tabs. If I need more than 8 or so, I'll sling some in another browser instance. I honestly don't know if this is because I'm dumb or smart, but at my last jobs the smarter people always had about 2 dozen tabs open. LOL, no one ever rebooted.
I work with someone who never closes a tab. They'll just keep plowing ahead until they literally have to reboot their computer for lack of resources. Physical clutter doesn't bother me much, but I have to look away when they share their screen.

This is the way.

clearly they need more RAM

Firefox tabs survive reboots and waste about as much resources as a bookmark. Those people should really migrate.

You can set Firefox to purge everything when you close it, not sure why its not set as default

I had a user that did this with outlook emails all the time. Since she was in leadership, we had to put up with it. At one point we even had to escalate it to Microsoft and they came back saying that Outlook is simply not designed to be used in such a fashion. That did not dissuade the user at all. After maxing out the computer specs, she ended up exceeding the actual limitation of the software for resources used.
I think eventually she got fired for incompetence for other things. It was quite a relief.

It's either Facebook or Facebook.
Or TvTropes

Isn't it
alt + left? I could swear I've done it before (but maybe not on Firefox...?) -

For the record (because I just looked it up, as I also have this problem): it's
ctrl+tab, but only if you enable "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" in Settings first. -

For other things? That just speaks to the incompetence of the morons above her...

I'm so confused every time I use a new browser.

Crtl + L to go to address bar, type % then a space, then the tab you looking for. Will search open tabs
In this I wish Firefox was more like Chromium. I use tab search a lot and Ctrl + Shift + A is much more efficient than this 3-step combo
-
@[email protected] is that an actual issue for you?
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 know that you're suffering but, still, thanks for the laughter ! @[email protected]
Dude answered his own question. Click random tab -> drag current tab off the window -> window returns to previous tab without any tabs being closed.
Unhinged behavior nonetheless

There are search in tab title extensions around, if your herding extension for the thousands of tabs not already supports that.
