I feel judged by my iPad.

@adders Your iPad's judgment is true and righteous.

@adders I freak out when I have more than five open!

@adders And by the rest of humanity, or, at least, me.

@adders And now, by the rest of the Micro.blog community. 😬

@adders hahahahahaha. This is incredible.

I always close them before I go into a work meeting because I fear some ad will play or something.

@adders me pointing at you in awe

@adders I was up I've 200 on my phone but I bow to the master. Did you close them?

@adders I always wondered how many it was possible to have…

@adders That number took my breath away. Show it with pride I say.

@johnjohnston Five obvious ones, so I could open more…

@jean I value you all holding me accountable. :-)

@adders that sounds like the right amount of tabs :-) The more the merrier.

@dwalbert There are two kinds of iOS Safari users: those who wonder how many tabs you can have open, and those who know that limit is 500. I feel your pain, @adders .

P.S. Safari tab groups are The Way out of the mess. I’m still working through mine, but down to about 100.

@fgtech I use Opera on my phone, but the way out for me would be not to have it open a new tab every time I open the browser. Most of the time that top tab is just a quick search and I'd gladly overwrite it, but closing the new one and going back is a multi-step process on the phone, and I'm usually too lazy to complete it.

@dwalbert Right. There’s no way for the browser to know which tabs you want to keep and which are okay to reuse. I use open tabs as a memory aid to help keep track of where I left off in my last search, but it ends up being a “memory leak” on the phone.
