Just going through the tabs on my iPad. I've closed 4 and have 94 still open 😱
Probably have a similar number on my phone, I've no idea.

This is mindblowing....how can you have so many open? That would give me anxiety.

I have 5 on my laptop and will close them when I log off soon.
None on my phone.

@TheOtherAgentJohnson but then you have to remember that a) you bookmarked something and b) where you bookmarked it and c) how many related bookmarks you have. I would forget if it wasn't staring at me when I look at it.

Well I don't bookmark that much, I tend to just do the thing. But I have the to-do lists and reminders to tell me what's outstanding. My bookmarks are at the top of the browser window, categorised into folders.

If I had hundreds of tabs open, I would forget about them and not get the task done. I'm very much out of sight, out of mind. It's a really cumbersome system of reminders, compared to a single list, isn't it? You have to go back through all the tabs one by one to see what they are. Makes no sense.

Ha. I had this conversation at uni today. I had 143 open at the time but I closed them all.
