I can't do more then 5. Gotta close the browser so it purges and start over

Yea, I think this depends on when you grew up learning your browsing habits. Back in my day lol when tabs came around, the computers could only handle a small handful before bringing the computer to its knees. Now the browsers don’t actively load the other tabs but I still can’t stand to have more than maybe 10 tabs when I’m researching something before I get an eye twitch.

Shit, I never thought about it that way, but you may be onto something here. Not only tabs were heavy, they weren’t isolated into processes in most early implementations (IIRC that was the big Chrome selling point early on) and could crash your whole browser, so it made me extremely nervous opening too many tabs as I could lose it all with one error.
