Just to follow up, what is your method for finding those tabs again?
Imagine a scenario where you have 200 tabs open. Unlike bookmarks, they aren’t categorized into folders.
I imagine one can keyword search all open tabs, but that’s kinda like googling them again except you have a filter on what you’ve opened. When would you ever want to do that vs just doing a new google search?
I can sort of imagine having open tabs as a kind of “saved state” when doing research without the additional hassle of curating bookmarks (adding/deleting/classifying). But just curious if people think of it this way.
Windows are folders, and they're spread out across monitors and workspaces. My taskbar is a wide strip on the side of one monitor so it can easily list about 20 or so windows.
The organization is basically that of a desk with stacks of papers on it: impenetrable to others maybe, but completely logical to me.
