How many tabs do you have open?
 
Are you someone who uses many tabs, and how many do you have open right now?

Here's mine at the moment of writing this thread. A bit of a minimalist when it comes to tabs. No idea why I opened chess.com messages, I never actually receive anything. But it's just been sitting there



It's just a fun topic. You don't have to screenshot nor share what's opened.

6 tabs for me at the moment. with my PC right now i can easily get to about 10-20 tabs without worry, but i've been so used to the life of having a cheap computer that lags real easily that i've been hesitant to keep that many open.

i cannot fathom how those folks with like 3 different windows and 70 tabs each operate optimally (my gf is one of these). would it even matter to keep them open if they're just gonna reload anyway when you activate them?

I have about a dozen or so open at any given time. I get through them before I go to sleep... usually. Mostly it ends up being things I want to remind myself to watch or listen to. I also typically have 3+ google docs open for various RPs because I can never find myself focusing on one post unless I have other posts to neglect. One of my doc tabs has been open for well over a month now... but I added to it a couple of times since then so it's ok.

Right now, I'm sitting at an easy 8. But I'm also on my way to bed, so it's not the norm by any means.

Funny I come across this topic after I had to find a tab session saver for Firefox just so I can restart my laptop to update it without losing my tabs 😭

I have exactly 20 tabs open (used to be double until I remembered I can remove a whooole bunch of them). I find it really difficult to 'close the book' so to speak on stuff I'm still working on. What am I working on? Well, my emails are permanently open at the moment cause I'm on the lookout for some stuff. I have half a dozen tabs open for things relating to the new PC I'm building, then like a few more for a fanfic I'm writing. At least two for background information on a roleplay I'm in currently, a couple more related to Arknights and the current event. PokeCommunity. Some artists I'd like to commission... Hoping to close the some by the end of this weekend at least! God help me if I start another project though.

i typically have maybe 4 or 5 tabs open in my browser at a time - i don't like having too many, and if i get over 10, i just close everything and start anew.

Same here, I'm very much a minimalist when it comes to how many things I have open at once and if I ever get too many the whole browser gets a reset.
My typical browser setup is generally whatsapp/telegram, then usually 3-4 tabs of whatever site it is I'm on at the time be it PC, reddit, twitter, youtube, etc.

Palamon March 4th, 2021 10:58 PM

I have 5 tabs open in this browser, a separate session for a different twitter account, and another browser open for Swagbucks.

so, that's 7 tabs total.
I try to never have more than 10 open at a time because that's too much clutter. x_x

literally me when i was still in the market to buy and build one lmao. tabs of Tom's Hardware, r/BuildaPC, PCPartPicker, local FB marketplace, local online computer shops, etc. just sprawled about everywhere.

Sheep March 7th, 2021 6:31 AM

I tend to have few tabs open, usually less than 10 (if that). Really don't like having a lot of them lol. atm I only have two - this thread and the Genshin Impact 1.4 special program, which I still haven't finished watching oops.

TwilightBlade March 7th, 2021 10:33 AM

I currently have 12 tabs open, but most of them are cooking recipes I really ought to just bookmark. I usually have 10 to 15 tabs open. I clean the tabs up every now and then when I don't need the article anymore. I don't mind the clutter as in my mind, it is easier than searching for it again. Forgot to mention I'm using a phone so the tabs are less annoying than on desktop.

भाग्य ज्योति March 15th, 2021 12:15 AM

I have currently opened 10 tabs and I don't think my laggy comp can handle more. Gonna close this tab after sending this.

Incineroar March 15th, 2021 10:20 PM

5 tabs on my computer between Edge and Chrome, and about 15 on my phone. My phone definitely handles them better though haha.

Tsutarja March 18th, 2021 4:48 PM

12 tabs across 2 windows right now

Meister_anon~Master_o f_None March 18th, 2021 6:07 PM

heh, this thread was made for me.

about 200!!

Thanks to edge sleeping tabs I can save on memory, and that's only on my laptop!

But I've got a gaming laptop after my last one broke, so that also helps.

I don't really get slow downs anymore unless
I'm running a compiler for a rom, while I have several other heavy programs on and edge at the same time.
I swear that feature has been a game changer for me.

I've probably got another hundred on my phone.

moon March 20th, 2021 12:41 AM

Only tabs I actually am using. So, currently 1.

Whenever tabs start becoming too small for me to read what I'm doing, it's probably because I have plenty of serebii pages up to compare pokémon data or something, and then I often just pull them out into a browser window separate from whatever else I do alltogether. I also always close all tabs when I exit the browser or turn off the computer.

...So I found out that hovering over the browser icon actually shows how many tabs I have open and...

7 at the moment, but it's usually 4 or 5.

Tsutarja March 30th, 2021 5:50 AM

8 tabs across three windows

FullMetal_Ashheart March 31st, 2021 2:07 PM

Currently, I only have two. Got this site on one tab and I have Twitter open on another tab since I try to keep track of it because where I currently am Roleplaying there.

StCooler April 1st, 2021 7:08 AM

I'm quite surprised, at least half of you don't have that many tabs open at the same time... (Except Meister_anon lol) Most of my friends never close tabs, so after half an hour they generally end up with twenty to a hundred tabs, which makes me mad, because I don't want to spend thirty seconds navigating through tabs whenever I want something...

Generally I'll have three to five tabs open among: PokéCommunity / WordReference (English dictionary) / Youtube / Deezer / Gmail. Generally Youtube is in a separate window, on my second monitor.
Can climb up to fifteen tabs if I'm searching something or trying to solve a problem.

colours April 4th, 2021 3:29 AM

15 tabs open rn, which is pretty typical (if not a bit on the low end) for me.

भाग्य ज्योति April 4th, 2021 5:34 AM

11 Tabs reached.

Shonen_God April 4th, 2021 5:05 PM

33 on my iPad right now hahaha! I always like it like that

pokemon fan person April 8th, 2021 3:57 PM

3 (i’m using my old ipad that can’t handle tons of tabs, but i still use this ipad a lot)

Sydian April 9th, 2021 7:29 AM

not only do i have multiple tabs open, i have a separate chrome window open too LMAO. on my main one tho i have tabs for twitter, discord, ao3, youtube, spotify, and PC. this is actually really cut back for me compared to how i used to be. on my other chrome, i just have it open to use alternate twitter accounts for roleplay. it's just easier this way.
