It’s easy to be critical of them, but whatever. Maybe it’s like saving shortcuts or files to the desktop. Seems ridiculous but if that’s how nan wants to do it who cares.

minus-squarefine_sandy_bottom@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·8 months agoI don’t use bookmarks
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoYeah, I have a mental cutoff somewhere around 200 tabs. I don’t count them, but I routinely so a “close to the right” and get 100+ in the “are you sure” pop-up. I do this about every week or two… And yes, I close a lot of tabs as I go.
minus-squareHonytawk@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoI just close them every day when I shut down my PC. If I need one back I just re-open them. If one of them really is that important that I need it multiple time, I create a bookmark for it. Sometimes I even close my browser multiple times a day in order to clear all cookies since that is the easiest way. (Firefox setting)
