I just moved to a new phone and I just want all tabs bookmarked. Opening all of them on desktop won’t work because that option usually only loads the first hundred or so before locking up.

      In the spirit of answering a question of genuine interest, it’s because tabs are much easier to process out on desktop, whether to read-it-later archives like Pocket or Omnivore or to project folders or tasks. I’d just sync them up and call it a day but I lost my moment when my tabs crept up over one hundred. There’s a lot of good research there, whether for work or home programming projects.

      If they (hypothetically, of course) have 450+ ff android tabs and a hoarding problem 😐

    Is this hoarding? You should try to break this cycle. There’s no way every single one of those hundreds of tabs is important to you. Take an hour or two to go through the tabs and manually create the bookmarks on desktop for only the ones that are most important to you. Let all the other ones go.

      This is probably true… I have around 250 tabs on my phone, I should probably do a clean up one time… Eitherway, almost all should be in my account’s history.

      Could be usefull at the very least as a history trail (as “History” proper is bloated with garbage, unfortunately)

    Doesn’t the sync work?
    I can always jump into that section in browser and there are all the tabs I have across devices.

    One possible solution is that all of these tabs will go into your history, which also can sync between devices if you configure it to. Once you have Firefox open on your desktop, you can click the hamburger menu in the top-right, history, manage history. Once in there, you can select all of the items in your history at once with ctrl-a, right click, then bookmark them all at once.

    If it’s crashing while trying to open the synced tabs, you may need to turn off the tab syncing first in sync settings.
