Ok but when do you make the decision to invest in organizing open tabs into groups versus bookmarking them or just moving them to a dedicated window. When do you close the tab or tab group -- only when the initiative is over? Do you "archive" those tabs as bookmarks?
And then there's the profile variable
That's the key, it's like having a separate window, but without the separate window.
At work I'll open anywhere between 40 and 100 tabs at a time, but I want to keep them near my existing tabs and not in another window. I have an extension that opens them all in a new tab group. I typically work from the left edge of the group and close out of tabs as I get through them. I can still hop between my non grouped and grouped tabs without having to change windows. And if I want to pause it for a bit then I "minimize" the group like a window.
Why do you have to "get through them" in a specific order, though?
Because I have bees in my head that tell me to get through them in order
