Around 5 or 6 most the time. I can't manage more than that.

5-6 per open project at work and other work, so, about a thousand.

Really about 50-80 in 20 windows because I've only just learned of tab groups.

I organize my tabs by topic window (small project, chunk of work for a larger project, related idea) then kick them into onetab as a bundle with a short description when I'm done with whatever it is I needed them for.

I typically have 5-30 tabs open in topic windows at any time but I can open onetab and ctrl-f to find anything I've saved over the last 7 or 8 years. There must be 5000 tabs in there at this point.

Zero. I don't have a browser open, just a phone app.

Right now? 2. Generally? under 10.

Typically 1~10. Four right now (all four are Lemmy: inbox, another thread, front page, this thread)

I close them as the tabs bar feels cluttered and/or I see no reason to keep them open.

[–] ctag@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

That's a good number!

[–] punkwalrus@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Usually about 10-30. It depends. I have a minimum of 6010 tabs open for stuff I check several times a day, like mail, news feeds, and such. Then I have a few working projects, like Google docs. Then some "temporary tabs" that expand from 10 to 30, as a reminder of tasks I have to complete or get back to someone on, only to shrink them down later in the day.

Thank you for the links!

[–] Lmaydev@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

None. I bookmark stuff if I need to come back.

No more than around 10, I actively try to keep the number of tabs I have in check. Sometimes I quit the browser and reopen tabs again as a way clear my head.

[–] ctag@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

The zen method. I dig it.

[–] Krzd@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (3 children)

probably around 300, split into 2 windows, one "main" and one that's effectively my YouTube to watch list

On my phone I have 4 tabs but on my laptop I have 4 windows open each having 10 tabs open

[–] dandroid@dandroid.app 3 points 11 months ago

If I leave a tab open for more than a couple of days, I bookmark it and then close it.

[–] kalkulat@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Seldom more than 5 or 6 before using Firefox to 'close tabs to right'. It keeps a short history of recently visited URLs in the toolbar, and a deeper, searchable 'library' of visited sites going way back. Longer term interests I save to Bookmarks.

I dunno like 25 in two windows.

[–] Fitik@fedia.io 2 points 11 months ago

:D (I'm using my phone)

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago
[–] 2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 11 months ago

Three windows, with 7, 4 and 1 tab respectively.

[–] furycd001@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

I usually have a minimum of 8 tabs open, but right now it's something like 24. I've recently gotten into a bad habit of opening tabs & not getting around to them until maybe a week or two, maybe sometimes more. I really need to sort out my tab game & start being more productive....
