    bookmarks are for repeated access, tabs are for one-time things that you’re going to get to any day now

      Loading up the same tab each day is not repeated use? And you can also have folders in bookmarks. Ctrl+B Ctrl+W Bookmark added to last save location and tab closed.

        if you don’t click them, they don’t load. and if i can’t see the thing i’ll forget about it.

          How many can you see even? 20 or maybe 30 if only the icons load?

          Keeping this many of anything in working memory is also not possible without forgetting.

          Definitely not hundreds so the point about visibility is kind of mute.

                no, fewer steps. these auto-arrange themselves into hierarchies based on browsing history, meaning you always have context for why a page was opened.

                    there’s a difference between doing an extra step once and doing it every time you need the functionality. i open hundreds of new tabs on a given day and i need to keep maybe 50% of them around for a few days, and 5% permanently.
