- I can leave an academic article for reference, a story I plan vaguely to read someday or a picture I see once and like, open for many weeks as a tab without returning to it.
- After researching a theme, I can move onto the next in which I am curious while leaving many of the last topic’s tabs open.
I should think that an extension could let me limit how many tabs I have open: five or twelve seem candidate thresholds. I could not see any such extension in Pale Moon’s library that would do this. (I have seen one that counts the tabs, but I want a hard limit, not a mere gauge. I can count and think ‘ha, I have 36 tabs’ using View Tabs.) Automatic tab closing if a tab goes a set time (three days?) without being accessed again would help to tame this mess also. (The closest I have seen to this is Suspender, but this does not close the tabs.) Which extensions would let me tame this hydra?
