@Danglingmod

People with 95 (!) or any more than about 8 tabs open, how do you toggle between them to find what you want to reopen?
I don't 😂😂 just open a new window and search again

I bet you don't put your email in folders either, do you?

Gmail does that for you anyway. Stuff I want/need to read. Promotions, Social and Updates. I'm sure I can add more filters but I just search if I need to.

This thread is stressing me out but I can't tear myself away!

When you open a new tab and start typing what you are searching for, Safari shows the option “go to tab” if you have it open Grin

I have 35. I closed some yesterday, then opened a few more.

Dd1 always marvels at how many I keep open but I've tried bookmarking sites & I then forget that that function's available (or how to find them if I remember) so gave up Blush Grin

Abzs · 28/08/2020 13:00

Just this one.
I did have three open this morning, but I closed them when I was finished with them.

DappledThings · 28/08/2020 13:06

I don't get why there would be more.

EggysMom · 28/08/2020 13:14

I'm not using my phone.

But on my laptop I have about 22 open - 10 in my main window, 6 in a 'things to buy longterm' window, and another 6+ in my family tree window.

  1. When I get to mid to late 20s I start closing some down.
PurpleSproutingSomething · 29/08/2020 01:03

500 on Safari and 78 on Chrome!

I also have 10.5k unread emails too Shock

99

Oblomov20 · 29/08/2020 06:45

I never have more than say 6 open. Years ago Ds1 asked why I had so many open. Since then I close them daily. Aren't you supposed to? Is there a reason why you don't close yours regularly?

36degrees · 29/08/2020 06:52

46 - I thought it would cut me off at 50, good to know.

TonytheDog · 29/08/2020 07:02

441 on my own phone. Blush

TonytheDog · 29/08/2020 07:08

I also have 30,448 unread emails 🙄😁

wendz86 · 29/08/2020 07:11

4 - I only keep them open if I use them a lot otherwise I shut them down .

PurBal · 29/08/2020 07:44

After 99 it stops counting. So more than that.

BammBamm · 29/08/2020 09:05

75

Hoohaahoo · 29/08/2020 09:07

How do you find out without counting them all? I must have close to 100.

FromTheAllotment · 29/08/2020 09:22

@WineGetsMeThroughIt thanks for that tip!

121 ShockShock thank you all of those with higher numbers who are making me feel better Grin

A lot of mine need closing... menus for pubs still up after we had the meal out weeks ago, ideas for DH’s birthday which has now been and gone...

They need an option of “bookmark all”, that would help me.
