really? 1k tabs? genuinely curious as I’m a 0-tabber… whatre your browsing habits ? do you have them organized? you have to have some kinda tab organizer yeah? can i see a screenshot?
If they “hide” in a bookmark they might as well no longer exist. Of course with 4 windows and hundreds of tabs each, I end up with dupes and sometimes spend hours just culling the ones no longer needed and make no really noticeable progress. I really need to set aside a weekend and do just that, but life demands my attention. 😩
Edit - I also have 32GB of RAM running as 64GB zram and still sometimes get stuff closing because OOM when I do things like run updates while compiling a new kernel.
When it comes time to dedupe, I’ll bookmark all open tabs (you can do this per window using ctrl+shift+d), open the bookmark manager and pull them from the per window folders into a single folder, then run an addon to dedupe my favorites. Much faster than trying to do anything like that by hand.
Once that’s done you can select all favorites in that folder and open them all up in a new window, but at that point I already have the bookmark manager open so I usually go through them from that.
Is this a problem in Chrome? I use Firefox with just 16gb and have no problem with a couple dozen tabs.
I have firefox and like 3 windows each with 1000+ tabs.

Why?
Could you not just bookmark them

Game dev tutorials I’m only going to watch once.
You can, but there isn’t much of a difference in performance.
It’s an exaggeration. Browsers use a lot more RAM than one would expect, but there’s not that much of a difference between each one.
Firefox suspends tabs to disk
