I’ve tried tab groups in safari, which seemed like the perfect feature for me, but I always forget to switch before opening new, unrelated tabs.
Bookmark-all-and-close works pretty well since I’ve literally never gone back and looked at the bookmarks in the 15ish years I’ve been using the approach. Groups would solve a different problem (task-specific tabs get mixed together) but add enough friction that I simply don’t use them.
It takes a while to build the habit, but I personally have a 'general' group that serves for my regular browsing. If I find I've got a whole bunch of tabs for a topic I'm working on, I create a new group from them. I clear out the general group regularly.
