I recently "closed" 12000+ (not a typo) tabs in one of my Firefox profiles into OneTab. In another profile I have 30+ different windows open for different projects and contexts, and I have more profiles (typically one per WM workspace which are topical).

I've tried lots of browser addons/extensions and tools over the years, but none offered proper salvation. I have a design in my head of what kind of tool I'd like, but like everyone else I have no time between work and everything else to build it.

Long ago I used to blame the tools, but these days I realize it's me. I put minimum 32 GB RAM into my boxes, and it's because of VMs and browsers.

As a warning, I just lost all my OneTab state. Not sure why, never bothered reading the code either. Make sure you do an export every once in a while.
Or even better, switch to Tablerone, import your OneTab data and never lose a single tab or session ever again. https://tabler.one/
why do you have so many?
What would the tool you want look like?
