Reminds me of my own approach of RINORIN (read it now or read it never) which I've written about on HN before and led me to cancel all my RIL app subscriptions and create https://notado.app for my own personal needs instead.
I leave up articles for days hoping I'll read them, they pile up in my tabs— wasting so much memory. A lot of pc memory is wasted from just this on my end and I know I'm not the only one.
It's interesting to think about how much wasted energy comes from tabs you're leaving open, hoping you'll get back to them one day.
Use the Onetab extension. Click the button and it stuffs all tabs into a big list, which you can go back to (ha! yeah right) or export to a text file that let's you ignore it for the rest of time without triggering the anxiety of having to decide to throw away information.
I currently have 45 tabs open, and for me, that's a really good, low number. My record is - no kidding - 1000 tabs. Kudos Firefox! I still have the tab stash saved on my hard drive. It's 470kb in size. A lot of research on renewable energy and nuclear power. I couldn't process all the information for a paper and still feel like I haven't found the most valuable ones again.
I can still remember when having more than one window in the browser was first possible and how cool we all thought it was.
"Tab hell" is hell on earth. It also makes you mentally ill.
Then, if you're like me, at some point your browser runs out of space for tabs and you end up having to randomly close a bunch of tabs to reclaim. So you just indiscriminately close things and realize you won't miss them and you should've probably just not opened them to begin with.
