I just lost my 1000+ browser tabs after closing and opening my browser. My life is over.
I lost my entire history (and the backup created by an addon/plugin that extends history) in Chrome because I had low storage space on my main drive and apparently when it geos <1 GB chrome deletes everything and fricks everything up because mentally ill nepo baby morons programmed it to work that way.
Maybe it does the same to tabs?
I searched for some backup or something in my profile folder and nothing. Opened a bunch of files using sqlite and everything was gone.
Fricking clown world. Just do the math: 1 million websites stored as tabs/history would only require a few dozen megabytes of space. Why delete?! Nobody has care about megabytes since the mid 90s. What an insanely idiotic piece of software.
And the >history from 90+ days ago is deleted
thing is stupid too.
I'm guessing they sabotage their program so that it becomes less and less useful. After all, most of their money is made by raping your privacy (surveillance, selling data, etc.) and showing you ads.
That's what just happened to me too. I ran out of space yesterday on my hard drive. Now all my tabs are gone.

If you really want you could just do what I do with youtube videos for my playlist and just make a google drive excel sheet and list every tab you want to save and a brief description of what it's about. Youtube deletes my playlist videos often so I just type in the name of the video and any extra notes if I need to.

i just use text or csvs for that because i want to search through stuff locally and edit it in vim. I can't bother making an excel sheet for it. I don't want to use israelitegle for it either. I store everything locally as much as possible because I know these Black folk take your shit and train algorithms/AI on it or sell/leak it everywhere on the internet and if I'm not comfortable saying personal stuff to strangers I'm not comfortable
with narcissistic psychopaths and pajeet nepo babies reading my shit or using it to train algorithms. I used bing a few days ago and I asked it to write a script (that I know I'd uploaded on github) and it copy pasted it and refused to say who was the author lmao.

Why? Why do you need so many tabs? I need at most 10 tabs open at one time, and when I'm done on a website I feel I NEED to close the tab. What is so important that you have to have a 1000 tabs open at once?

interesting, do they use virtual desktops/spaces for different browser windows with tab categories, so they have one for social media they never leave for example?

moronic Black person.
The only morons I've seen doing this crap are ultra normies and streamers.
You're not a special assburger, you're a low IQ normalgay.
yeah, happens to me all the time but i didnt look at it for a reason so i just start hoarding a new and usually if you run some basic math you'll see it would take you many lifetimes to get through even a couple sets of accumulated tab slop so who cares
the only reason youd ever have more than 5 tabs open is because you're some normie or old person who keeps accidentally opening things on new tabs and doesn't know about it.
>do you have no short term memory? you cant just remember to look into something later? you need a reminder for every single thing?
It's just hoarding behavior, they will never read any of the tabs but they become anxious that they might lose the info they thought was interesting for a few seconds so they just open more and more tabs they will never read.
Same shit as people who's living room is full of stuff they pulled out of dumpsters that they totally will use someday for some project.
OneTab got wiped for me once somehow after an update and I lost FRICKING EVERYTHING. I currently have Tab Stash but I don't have a great deal of confidence in it.
Your browser likely creates session backups each time you close the browser. It likely only keeps the last couple backups though, so if you close and open your browser again then you're cooked.
Search for the backup session and save it. Then use it to overwrite your regular session.
FOMO and lazyness. People like OP and I are the kinds of people who think to ourselves that we'll just put something on the desktop to acecess it faster and organize it later only to have have a bunch files on there until we eventually get fed up with it and just format our systems to start fresh only to have the cycle repeat once again. I wish there were a cure for this.
That's why I use tab session manager extension that periodically saves all tabs so no matter how it crashes the tabs are saved. It also allows you to manually save all tabs under a name that you can restore from. I use thousands of tabs all the time and run out of disk space and this is a life saver.
>>he's not a local archivist chad data hoarder
I wish I had the money for that also I'm not OP.
I only have two 1tb drives both 75% because the other one is a dupe.
I lost hundreds tabs of e-girl doujins that I was gathering for about two years. I was going to save them to my computer but never actually got around to doing so. It hurt.
>bookmarking youtube links
What the hell is wrong with you? Just like the video or add it to a playlist, or hell don't even do that you have a fricking watch history you mongoloid.
Youtube is slow and bloated as frick these days. I hate that if you click on a video in your playlist, it also loads the whole playlist next to it, bogging it down even more. I'd rather interact with its shitty UI as little as possible and just save to bookmarks.
i have 1617 tabs atm, i use a hibernation extension and a vertical tab organizer
they've gotten wiped before, stupid backup system is terrible, the only option is sending a json file to a ~~*google docs*~~ account
>bookmarks
bookmarks systems haven't improved in like 25 years
Zoomer esl on the line. There's high chance that ~900-950 of the tabs were e-girl, porn, youtube, tik-tok, IQfy. These have ~10-15 sites, all with internal search engines. So why do you keep them as direct links instead of these sites + a text file of search queries which would lead you to the links? It's not like you've gained these links out of nowhere. >muh gets deleted
Make a local archive for later use then. With backups. It is the only solution.
>close my entire browser with 1000+ tabs >oh actually forgot I opened a new window (not private) >let me close that too >sessionstore.js overwrites your 1000+ tabs to that last window with emtpy tab you closed, basically wiping it >not even a trace in the backup files since it thinks this commit is legit (that you were done with your 1000+ tabs when you exited it) >since it's not "corrupted sessionstore" it means that there is no previous backup, the backup sessions also got committed to becoming one black tab >pressing ctrl+shift+t does nothing
meanwhile on chrome (though chrome/google is not based) you can just press ctrl+shift+t and recover ALL your tabs from since you installed that browser, this is the power of browsing history tracking (one feature which google products are VERY good at). it is sad that this is not the case with mozilla,
mozilla had been shit EVER since, even with fricking forks you'd still need "Tab Session Manager" to have it usable even today but compared to google chrome (back in like 2008) it would restore all your tabs, due to its upbringing that it CRASHES all the time, this made chrome have the best tab session recovery compared to any other browser, not even opera (presto) can compete
>close my entire browser with 1000+ tabs >oh actually forgot I opened a new window (not private) >let me close that too >sessionstore.js overwrites your 1000+ tabs to that last window with emtpy tab you closed, basically wiping it
Precisely this ^
When I'm closing firefox, I always (always!) use the exit option in the menu, which closes and saves everything at once. I'm super careful about closing windows.
i don't have to be because i have an addon that takes regular session backups, so if the current session is unusable like that, i can just restore the next newest backup
Opening and closing a tab is less work than setting up a bookmark, especially if you categorize it. Bookmarks are for things you visit repeatedly or want to have saved for a specific occasion.
Tabs are for stuff you use once. And sometimes they pile up.
Bookmarks are more annoying to organize and you don't stay on any particular version of a page necessarily. When I open up my browser, everywhere I need access to is readily available in little labeled folders. And I can bookmark the lot of it as a timestamp.
I remember Chrome's UI becoming completely broken by the time you open about 40 to 50 tabs. First the tabs become Toblerones, then anything after the number would never be shown in the tab bar.
going through all what? installing an addon?
if something happens and my session is damaged, i get a popup before the browser opens asking to restore the last backup
Imagine going through all this instead of using bookmarks
also, how is maintaining bookmarks less work? i don't know ahead of time how long i intend to keep a tab, i only bookmark things i feel i may forget how to find
How do you guys even find enough interesting webpages to have so many tabs? The web seems dead to me, if I open up a browser there is nowhere I want to go or search.
ctrl + shift + t
Thank me later anon.
I did try that, also tried history. They disappeared. Pressing ctrl shift t only opens up one tab.
I lost my entire history (and the backup created by an addon/plugin that extends history) in Chrome because I had low storage space on my main drive and apparently when it geos <1 GB chrome deletes everything and fricks everything up because mentally ill nepo baby morons programmed it to work that way.

meanwhile on chrome (though chrome/google is not based) you can just press ctrl+shift+t and recover ALL your tabs from since you installed that browser, this is the power of browsing history tracking (one feature which google products are VERY good at). it is sad that this is not the case with mozilla,
mozilla had been shit EVER since, even with fricking forks you'd still need "Tab Session Manager" to have it usable even today but compared to google chrome (back in like 2008) it would restore all your tabs, due to its upbringing that it CRASHES all the time, this made chrome have the best tab session recovery compared to any other browser, not even opera (presto) can compete

Precisely this ^
When I'm closing firefox, I always (always!) use the exit option in the menu, which closes and saves everything at once. I'm super careful about closing windows.
i don't have to be because i have an addon that takes regular session backups, so if the current session is unusable like that, i can just restore the next newest backup
Bookmarks exist for a reason.
Opening and closing a tab is less work than setting up a bookmark, especially if you categorize it. Bookmarks are for things you visit repeatedly or want to have saved for a specific occasion.
Tabs are for stuff you use once. And sometimes they pile up.
Bookmarks are more annoying to organize and you don't stay on any particular version of a page necessarily. When I open up my browser, everywhere I need access to is readily available in little labeled folders. And I can bookmark the lot of it as a timestamp.
Rookie numbers
dumb nicoposter
What suprises me about this is that you trusted Chrome to save 1000 tabs in the first place. Just use bookmarks.
I remember Chrome's UI becoming completely broken by the time you open about 40 to 50 tabs. First the tabs become Toblerones, then anything after the number would never be shown in the tab bar.
if you don't have a backup, it wasn't important
>how do you backup tabs
easy
Imagine going through all this instead of using bookmarks
going through all what? installing an addon?
if something happens and my session is damaged, i get a popup before the browser opens asking to restore the last backup
yes just use the built function that comes with your browser instead of downloading redundant extensions
also, how is maintaining bookmarks less work? i don't know ahead of time how long i intend to keep a tab, i only bookmark things i feel i may forget how to find
>1000+ browser tabs
imagine the memory leak
>I just lost my 1000+ browser tabs after closing and opening my browser. My life is over.
recover them
You weren't even using them. You just have ADD and can't focus on one thing long term
I had thousands of tabs but I did
>select all tabs
>bookmark
Before anything bad happened because I learned OP lesson many years ago.
Mentally ill troony, serves you right.
Learn to bookmark, and by that I mean write a bookmarking script that adds your links to a text file so your bookmarks are not browser-dependent.
Should have used a versioned filesystem like zfs.
How do you guys even find enough interesting webpages to have so many tabs? The web seems dead to me, if I open up a browser there is nowhere I want to go or search.
