You might still need those tabs though. You probably don't, but you might.
You're right, I don't. And since browsers come with this really neat feature called "history", it's not like I couldn't trivially re-open them again as needed.
It's far easier to have your history cluttered than you might think, and then finding the sites that you need or might need becomes harder.
Exactly. Whereas my 1000+ semi-ordered tabs are way less cluttered.
Yeah but you might forget that you need those tabs. Maaaybe they weren't that important then, but maybe they are.
I think that "weren't that important" indeed hints at how I keep/toss stuff IRL, too.
I toss a lot of shit. I don't keep stuff around for that one hypothetical use case that might crop up in 5 years. Most stuff sells surprisingly well second-hand, and this frees up a lot of money I had otherwise lying around doing fuck all for me.
