The only thing that lags from time to time on my M1 is opening a Safari tab. Recently did a clean install to get rid of some 10 year Time Machine backup cruft I accrued and it's gone. I've owned 3 in the past 10 years and none of them lag when pressing a key not even my wife's white MacBook with a HD.

Safari became unusable to me I might be a tab hoarder but I can’t be the only one. Sometimes it takes a minute to come to foreground again.

Switch to firefox, there are extensions to put tabs in the background so it feels lightweight whether you have 1 tab or 1001. All of apples reported efficiencies with safari just wash away when you compare it to the performance of firefox with tab suspension and ublock origin considering the modern web.

I just wish there was some interoperability with the tab syncing and password management features in Safari. I know that isn’t on Mozilla, but having to migrate the massive iCloud database of all my passwords and give up tab syncing to my phone makes switching to Firefox a hard sell.

What I did was switch to firefox on my phone as well. No issues with passwords in my experiences really.

Just put you tabs into bookmark folders for later use. For dev work I understand how one could need a lot of tabs but I just bookmark them into a folder.
