I called BS on the 30-tab warning for years. Then my browser crashed and I lost a week of work.
Had 87 tabs open across 3 windows for a renovation estimate I was piecing together from forum posts and supplier pages. Firefox ate it all when I tried to open a PDF. Anyone else lose something important because they refused to close a single tab?

Lost a week of work" is putting it lightly, that's a whole emotional journey right there. But 87 tabs across 3 windows? You weren't doing research, you were building a digital hoarder house and Firefox was the eviction notice. I swear every browser tab is like a stray cat you feel bad about closing, and then they all gang up on you when you try to open one PDF. My record was 45 tabs for a vacation plan, and Chrome gave me the spinning wheel of death just for looking at a map. Hope your renovation estimate wasn't too painful to rebuild, but let's be real, you probably didn't need all those forum posts about how to pick a door knob.

Building a digital hoarder house" is the most accurate description of my browser I've ever heard, @perez.christopher. That stray cat analogy is too real, I feel personally attacked.
