For people suffering from terminal tabbitis (I hit 7.5k), I can recommend the one-tab extension.

I'm pretty sure my maximum was ~15 tabs.

It’s easy[1] to open a new tab and forget about it. There’s no specific time or prompt to revisit it and make a decision to close or keep it except when your machine gets slow.

1: That is an understatement - easy as in, 100% automatic and subconscious, like taking a breath. Think about how fast you’ll rack up 7.5k breaths. It’s not a big number.
