Yeah they are like a volatile bookmarks with a traversable history and a 'this is very interesting but have to save the reading for later' todo list.

Once you bookmark a link the history-browsing-trajectory is lost. However once I visit a tab often it becomes a bookmark.

There are extensions to organize and search bookmarks.

you may be a fan of tree-style tabs - used to do me well when i used to be on FF - you get a sense of how you got somewhere.

I use vivaldi now - and while i have tabs on the left - i do miss tree-style features.

How do you navigate between your tabs?

If you type something in the Firefox url bar starting with a "% " (percent, then space) the rest of the string will be treated as a search across the titles and urls of your open tabs. This is what I typically use for navigation.

Firefox searches through open tabs by default when you type in the address bar.

You just use omnibus to find it, for me it is a temporary bookmark, once when I did cleanup I had 1000 tabs.
