This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The bing homepage is so terrible
I had a friend that used microsoft edge and bing because they were the default and said that firefox is the worst and edge is much better
I did switch his default browser to firefox and search engine(on edge) to google(i wanted to switch to duckduckgo, but he hated it for no reason) while he was talking
Can confirm. Even though everyone shits on Chrome for its liberal use of your RAM, Firefox will never suspend any pages, making it unusable when you're multitasking.
That's an ongoing issue, too! Hasn't been fixed for maybe a year at this point. Gonna use edge the next time I reinstall windows.
What are you doing that renders Firefox unusable? I've never had this issue in over a decade and I usually have 10+ tabs open.
10? Try (currently) 98 across 9 windows, 2 desktops. Firefox just dies. Chrome works, but Edge (thanks to its more agressive backgrounder) handles it fine. Reopens windows after reboot/shutdown better too. And that number goes up if I'm researching something - I've been upwards of 200 across 3 or 4 desktops in the past, easily.
I have like 300 tabs open at any given time, I have never had this problem. I also recently downloaded an extension for tab groups and making it so tabs get suspended after 15 minutes of inactivity, but I'm not really sure that was necessary at all.
I might have to give it a try. How is cross device sync and android support? I'll often send a group to the mobile...
Not available on my android device, and I don't really use other computers, so I dunno. I think onetab is supported on both, but I haven't used that one too much.
That's a bit of a deal breaker for me; I'm constantly swapping tabs from mobile to desktop... Oh well, I'll stick with Edge for now. Might do some more research myself anyway
Just ew... I will never understand this shit. Tabs aren't fucking bookmarks.
And that's how you use things, which is fair enough. I prefer to have an organised, ready-to-go access to commonly required resources that I can view at a glance. I have things like e-mail, calendar, various (multiple) messaging and social media resources open at all times. I also have documents and reference materials that are regularly accessed open. Books and long-form reading materials stay open at the position I'm at. Further to that, if I'm researching something it may take time for my thoughts and desires to coalesce; during that time, the primary research tabs stay open in their own group. I may have somewhere between 3 - 6 things I'm researching at a time, with varying numbers of tabs. Then there's note-taking, coding, gaming and rewards sites. Sure, some I use as 'bookmarks', but not that many - most are things that are in long-term progress and use.
At least in this context, handling a lot of tabs didnt matter because he had the startup option set to open the home page, not the previous pages and he doesnt use his pc enough to use this many tabs at once
