Matt bravely tackles the monumental challenge of creating that last forever—because we all desperately need browser tabs from 2012 🌐🔗. Turns out, cramming an entire compiler state into a URL just might not be the pinnacle of efficiency 🧐. But fear not, Google has come to the rescue, because who doesn't love outsourcing their problems to the tech overlords? 👾

Engadget: Firefox finally adds tab groups. “Firefox now lets you organize your tabs. Four years after its biggest rivals launched tab groups, Mozilla published a nearly 1,000-word blog post recounting the feature’s long road from user requests to launch. (Consider skipping it if you don’t like long-winded acceptance speeches.)”

eieio.games: Running Pong in 240 Browser Tabs . “That’s 240 browser tabs in a tight 8×30 grid. And they’re running pong! The ball and paddles are able to cleanly move between the canvas in the foregrounded window and all of the tabs above.”

I feel like I should get an award or something.

Image displays a screen from the Safari iOS web browser app with "Private" and "500 Tabs" prominently shown, along with options to add tabs (grayed out) and a "Done" button at the bottom.

If you use Firefox on Android - note that there is no easy (or straightforward) way to save / export open tabs / bookmarks / collections of bookmarks

Even syncing your account to a desktop machine doesn't allow you to easily do this.

I discovered this the hard way yesterday so this is just a FYI.

🤨 😑

I don't really get why some people have so many tabs open in their browser.
Like hundreds or even more. 👀

How do they even know where to find the tab they used for something?

I have the same four tabs open, in the same order, all the time.

If I open a new tab to search for something or whatever, I get anxious and want to close it as soon as I'm done with it. 🤷🏼‍♂️😅

If somebody is interested in customizing #Mozilla #Firefox via #css

github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSfo is a *very* good and modular resource to start.

After closing ~500 #browserTabs still 5633 to do 😄

If somebody is wondering:

* #Mozilla #Firefox on #Fedora #Linux on a #Lenovo T480s.

* Multiple, scrollable tab rows via userChrome.css in my profile (no extension).

* "Auto tab discard" extension sends inactive tabs to sleep (saves a lot of RAM and CPU).

* I close tabs in sessions as there are many topics I research but work on them later. I use closing sessions to transfer them into tickets. I usually have between 2k and 10k tabs around.

Screenshot of a context menu with all tabs of a Firefox browser window selected. It shows that there are 5633 tabs opened.
