    Frankly I think even the people with 25+ tabs open have a problem.

      I can easily do that in a day of work because I often have to reference documentation from many different sources.

      I’ll probably have 1-3 tabs for jira boards/tickets, a couple for gitlab merge requests, at least a few for the documentation of different third-party libraries I’m using, a few confluence pages, a few for different specs, 1-2 for Figma designs, a handful for different admin panels I need access to, a couple production dashboards/logs, in addition to whatever searching I need to do. I usually clear them out at the start of the next day, but they can add up pretty quickly.

      It’s amazing how many people think having tons of tabs is insane. How about all browsers start limiting how many tabs can be opened at a time (to accommodate proper, sane usage rules)?

        Firefox Focus on Android is there and it doesn’t have a button to add a new tab. You can only create one by clicking a link from those already existing. Also, just four shortcuts for some reason and no bookmarks.

        It’s a great default browser to open random links from your apps: no cookies, no logins, always a private tab experience. But when you need a bit more (like translating a word in an article you are reading) it’s restricted. Because Moz decided that’s the way it should be.

            Doesn’t matter if we talk about said concept in reality and how arbitrary limitations are weird. Although mobile internet usage is a little less incompatible with that idea.

              It matters. When I say browser I mean an application where user can design their own workspace and have it saved for further adjustments. Mobile browser concept for opening URLs from other apps is very far from that.

      Work in IT and have many different tickets and projects. 25 is nothing.

      It’s really not a big deal if you use tab groups or similar. Not all are loaded at all times but ephemeral enough that i wouldn’t want to save down to bookmarks.
