Fewer than 100 will massively pig out memory, on Android, Linux, and MacOS, for Chrome, IME.

My main FF instance has ~1,500 tabs FWIW, though I'll often bypass those for a given session by running incognito only. Even then I'll easily hit 100+ tabs in only a few minutes.

There's a cool feature web browsers have called "bookmarks"

That's true, until another program needs ram and crashes because chrome is hoarding it all

Ive run chromium and firefox side by side for years to isolate personal from work. The only noticeable difference is Chromium crashes when it uses all the memory.

People's overwhelming fascination with Chrome escapes me. Some subtle detail seems to make it stick out. Everyone remembers that one time ff crashed on 2005, but gives berth to Chrome crashimg every few days and selling their personal data to google.

I dont care if ddg and ff sell aggregate data.
