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.
On my personal Firefox, five pinned and usually 3-4 more. On my work Firefox, six pinned and 4-6 more in one window, and probably another 6-10 on a window in the other monitor.
If I can’t see at least part of the page title on each tab, I start feeling anxious. I do a lot of bookmarking, sending to Pocket, etc.
Only time I open more is when I am downloading a big thing split into multiple files and I can only download a couple at a time due to the file host’s BS.
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…
