Start every day new. Who the hell even looks through 700 tabs? Your search bar will recommend the website you clicked on previously, so if searchability is the issue, it's somewhat moot.

I can't work out if it's a symptom of ADHD or OCD. I'm leaning more on the OCD side for this kind of behaviour

    CTRL+SHIFT+T: Open recently closed tab.

    Can be hit as much as you like.

    Nobody:

    Firefox: Hey, fuck you, stop everything until you restart

    I realized that I am not responsible enough to manage tabs, so I force myself to always close them all. Even set the Tabs on my phone to auto-close if I don't look at them for some time. If something is important, I should bookmark it (which I usually forget, but oh well)

    Hence why I have session restore enabled.

    So I can have my 1519 tabs back.

    Like any normal person.

    ...this is what normal people do... right?

    I've been using Firefox's tab pinning function and it's wonderful. Whether you close your browser or your computer ends up shutting off for whatever reason, your tabs are all saved.

    However, I found out the hard way that if you open a second window and then close the the one with all your pinned tabs you lose all of them... 😳🫩😢

    Not to proliferate your issue but have you checked out extensions for tab trees in your browser? It let's you organize all the tabs you want yo keep. I've had the extension for years after someone told me about it. Maybe I'll think about using it today when I get to work and see the 5 or 6 browser instances with 20-40 tabs each I have open on my work pc...

    I've personally started vetting used to closing all my tabs every now an then. Let the important websites make their way onto my bookmarks

    You can change the setting in Firefox to purge everything when you close it, so if you end up with like 5 tabs you can just close it and open it again and its brand new fresh and clean
