  • The Browser Tab Count
    20. I use xTab (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xtab/amddgdnlkmohapieeekfknakgdnpbleb?hl=en) which automatically closes the oldest tab unless I pin it to stay at 20 or less tabs. Don't miss the tabs that close on their own at all. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • What is your productivity tech stack?
    Extensity - helps you create profiles for extensions, e.g. I have one for when I QA, one 'minimal' with most turned off, one for design, etc. Also makes it easy to toggle on/off extensions Xtab - max number of tabs. Helps keep me focused on what I need since it will auto-close the oldest/least recently accessed tab when new ones are opened. Source: over 1 year ago
  • I have 218 browser tabs open
    I normally leave tabs open in case I want to soon revisit them. I like xTab as a solution for this. It automatically closes the oldest tab after x are open. I just need to remember to pin tabs I don't want it to close (such as those used for meetings.) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xtab/amddgdnlkmohapieeekfknakgdnpbleb?hl=en. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
  • LPT: You probably won't miss those 20 browser tabs, so go and close them
    xTab is an amazing browser extension for Chrome, and it automatically limits the number of tabs you can have open at any time, by closing the least-used tab when you open a new one. Source: about 2 years ago
