>Why people even have all those tabs open?

IDK, maybe I might have ADHD or something, because I open every interesting link in a tab thinking I'll get back to it soon to finish reading or trying it out, but then never do because in the meantime I discover another more interesting tab, so they keep piling up.

I suffer from the same problem and my new solution has been to install a Firefox extension that, when I have more than 5 tabs open, closes any tabs that’s been idle longer than 5 minutes.

I found that with this approach I still get the dopamine hit without getting stuck sifting through 30 articles.
