I have a few open at all times, but no ridiculous stuff

I personally hate having any more tabs open than needed.

I'm like you....probably.

 

Never have a browser open when not browsing. Never have a tab open unless I plan to read it right away...

I'm a web developer .

 

So

 

 

 

I browse naked. I feel more in tune and intimate with the internet browser. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and I just generally don't fill more tabs than the tittle bar can handle without filling it up before opening another window. I tend to separate it into categories to make it easier to sort or close later.

Does windows spread across multiple desktops count? Because I always like to see most of a pages title.

I might opens a few tabs to read something later, but unless I am using it or needing a tab, it will be closed

 

Average is like 3-10 tabs, might use up to 20, but only temporarily and they will be closed once i have read the page (like opening multiple forum posts and closing them when read)

 

 

no idea how or why anybody would need like 60 tabs open

I only have the tabs I need open. Largely because my laptop slows to a crawl if I have more than 10 open at once, but also because I like to know what is on each tab without opening it, which is impossible with a load open.

Do I count as a tab fiend even though I only have 78 tabs open at the moment?

 

 

I need 16Gb of RAM, not for intensive programs or games, but for browsing the web. I have over 50 tabs open right now, just on the machine I'm on(more on other machines), so I use a lot of tabs lol.

 

Let me guess... you're running Chrome?

On average I have about 5. But if I'm researching something it might to upwards of 20 at most.

With pretty good internet, and efficient shortcuts for websites, i really don't see the need to have 50 tabs open. It'll take much more time to find the tap, than to just open it again.

Only have two tabs open right now. Both of them usually stay open most the time I am browsing. YouTube and here.
