    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… 😳🫩😢

        Yes, thats my though too when I open stuff in a new tab “for later”. What didn’t get through to my brain yet is that it is then out of sight (lost among hundreds of other tabs “for later”)

      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

      Doesn’t help if you have another browser window open, though you can get the window back from history, at least in Firefox based browsers
