What are all your browser tabs about? (hexbear.net)

I personally have them open because maybe I have a google search for a movie or anime I want to remember, but I've now switched that habit to noting down the name of the movie in my phone's note; it's helped me cut down on the tabs.

I also have tabs for manga currently open, but I'm going to start a new notes page in my phone for manga.

I also HAD pages open for Stellaris videos, but they're like two hours old so the content is already outdated and the game plays entirely differently now so I closed them.

I also have pages open for directors whose comedic movies or shows I'm curious to look up.

I also have pages open that talk about some rogue-like games so I can see if there's any among them I want (the pages are maybe a year old now and I still haven't gotten around to it).

There's also one tab that mentions several game dev journal videos available for people to watch.

I keep trying to find ways to cut down on my tabs but I still have so many open. What's on your tabs?

Huh...I actually thought I had it pretty bad; I had at one point almost 100 tabs, but then also on another PC of mine that I share with a sibling, I ALSO have lots of tabs open (we regularly look up movies and anime, but we've begun to noting them down instead, especially as sometimes youtube pages just 'die' and the movie we wanted to remember for later gets lost in the ether).
