Gmail, Google Voice, Google Calendar, and WhatsApp Web are always pinned. Everything else is contextual!

I keep two windows side by side: the left one has my email, youtube and sometimes a comic I'm reading or audiobook; the right one has a browser virtual pet game I check every few hours and is where I open new tabs to check lemmy, imgur, etc. Pretty clean! But then the moment I work on either art or coding I open a third window that usually gets to 10+ tabs oops

Mail, torrentleech, Element, WhatsApp, and whatever I worked on last time I had it open.

EDIT: Upon checking, it was all of the above. The "whatever I was working on" was the user manual of my car.

Only the one that I’m actively using, except on rare occasion where I want to go back and forth as reference material.

I keep folders of bookmarks and then right click > open all in tabs depending on what i'm doing.

i like to start with by opening a bunch of tabs depending on my task, then close them as i progress. if i need to stop with many tabs still open, like with topics being researched for projects, i'll save all tabs to a temp folder to resume later. about once a month i clean the temp folder and sort things i want to save in various categorical folders.

the categories are divided in a hierarchal manner of my own design, which is arbitrary and fluctuates constantly. my last count showed i was just a few shy of 2,000 bookmarks. it's current state is like this:

myshit

-my emails

-my websites (created by me)

-mine (sites with content about me but not made by me, like interviews)

-my cloud storage

-friends sites

-job search

-gov shit

-banking

-adult

-hookers (dating sites and local shopping like craigslist)

tools

-testing

-networking

-conversions

-freeshit

-search engines

-info (things like cheat sheets, connector and componant ID's, thesaurus, etc)

maps (i like maps)

-weather

-geology

-contamination

-space

-water

-animals

-electronic

-human stuff

all this shit

-nature

-neat people

-neat websites

-programming

-psychology

-radio (amateur)

-virtualization

temp

-todo

-sort me

-dated folders of project related tabs

Right now it's youtube, reddit and lemmy.

None. I open what I need and then close it after I've used it. I feel like I'm the weird one because so many people seem to live with countless tabs open all the time. I think people who keep tabs open have no sympathy for power, cpu, and ram usage. Nutters.

I have my webmail and homeassistant pinned, otherwise it's whatever I'm actively looking at.

bilibili.com

Usually pcpartpicker.com because I have an addiction to putting together pc builds that I will never be able to afford

Wikipedia articles and science news articles. I keep rotating through them to clean up my browser, but each article has more links I wanna read. I need to take a day and just read them all already! lol
