I guess I need to manage my browser tabs efficiently. Share how you manage them and suggest products to do it :) Just look at this πŸ‘‡ I know, it's a mess 😒

OneTab is my jam. I can temporarily save groups of tabs that relate to some project I'm working on, then come back to them all later. If the group sits there too long, then I know I can probably forget the project

@product_at_producthunt I'm also a proud OneTaber now πŸ˜‰

@product_at_producthunt Fellow one tab enthusiast here! πŸ‘‹πŸΎ I tried Toby for a bit too but prefer the simplicity of the mental model of one tab better.

You can use Ctrl+w (on Mac: ⌘ + w) This is the best tab management system you can find. If something goes wrong, just hit Ctrl+H.
Aditya
@iliya_valchanov this is sweet :) just pinning the history tab πŸ˜‰

@iliya_valchanov Dammit, closed my tab πŸ˜†

@iliya_valchanov You can use CTRL+SHIFT+T to reopen a tab you just closed by accident. Useful if you have a tab that was opened 5 days ago and you don't feel like digging in the history :D In Google chrome it even works if you just closed the browser (it will reopen the last tabs)

I also use the Group Tabs feature in Chrome - helps me get through the tabs/tasks in chunks that i can close off or minimize as i need. Have not explored any tools or extensions yet

@gayatri_sachdeva @avelino0 @adityavsc https://workona.com/ is awesome i'am using it now it look very cool and i can switch in different areas/workspaces and tabs are managed very well.

I use toby to organize my tabs or the context I want to have when working. https://www.gettoby.com/ I work on different projects and different tasks of different projects as an early-stage startup founder. If you have a lot of things going on and want to start the day with some uncluttered context it's a cool tool @adityavsc
Aditya
@dinalk thank you!!! gotta give it a try πŸ˜‰
Aditya
@avelino0 This is soo nice 🀩 @qamorgan and @alma_madsen do you plan to integrate Workona with Slack sometime soon?
Quinn Morgan
@adityavsc Thanks! We are already fairly integrated with Slack. You can share links and workspaces to Slack today, but we plan to go even deeper in the future.

@avelino0 Nice, they have a great landing page.
Aditya
@avelino0 @goforbg landing page looks so slick 🀩 will give it a try to manage sessions :)

In chrome or brave there's an inbuilt feature ↳ Right click on the tab ↳Then click on "add tab to new group" ↳ Name the group, choose color and add other tabs of choice Check it out, might be helpful
Aditya
@pratham_vasudev Yep! I've been using the groups feature for sometime. Life saver for sure. One thing I do not like about it, is that whenever a new tab is added to it, the complete list of tabs opens up. I wish it had some toggle feature.
Pratham Vasudev
@adityavsc same, even I don’t like that thing
Sasha Briu
I adore the feeling of closing all of them!!!
Aditya
@tasha_dziatkovskaya feels like an accomplishment, every single time!
Deepak Yadav
Yeah, your sure need something to manage these tabs. Hahaha My preferences: On brave: I use different profiles to manage tabs accordingly On safari: New update has wonderful tab management feature
Aditya
@worklab Ohh yea... different profiles do work... and will keep work and personal stuff separate!
Deepak Yadav
@adityavsc Yeah, but still it gets overloaded sometimes coz work doesn't seems to limit itself. Hahaha

Use different chrome windows in different workspaces (windows 10). Human 🧠 sucks at multitasking, if you're at one website have one tab of that website (most of your tabs are PH tabs) Control + Shift + T to recover lost tabs. Constantly talk yourself through what you're currently doing, I think most of the tabs would be sitting idle. You always have history so it's okay to close them, don't be afraid of loosing them forever
Aditya
@goforbg gave Yes, bundled all the PH tabs in one group. Targeting to limit myself to not more than 5 tabs (other than PH ofcourse) πŸ™ˆ
Nik Hazell
Chrome's tab groups are brilliant! Although, it does encourage me to leave FAR too many tabs open...
Aditya
@nik_hazell Hahahhaha Now I feel I have too many group tabs... 7 of them... and if I open any one of them... it feels like an army of tabs attacking me πŸ˜…
Nik Hazell
@adityavsc Yeah it doesn't fix the problem, just delays it slightly πŸ˜‚
Audrey Rampon
Hi @adityavsc! May I suggest our app KosmoTime? It has a cool Close Tabs feature, so you can see all your tabs listed out on one single page, and restore them whenever you need
Aditya
@audrey_rampon will definitely give it a try. I feel like I have used the most number of tab related products on this planet now. If any Tab company is looking for user feedback, here I'm πŸ™ˆ

I have +2 extra screen for my MacBook
Aditya
@david_rodgers1 hahahahaha ~only legends can pull this off~ I have two screens too, one for personal and other for work related stuff :)
David Rodgers
@adityavsc small MacBook one for slack, two others for work)

Sounds like a plug, but try using bit.ly/tabtrum. The big perk being it functions almost like the Tab groups of the new Monterey Safari
Aditya
@shuvam_manna all plugs are valid if the product is nice 🀩 will give it a try :)
Helena Merk
used vimium for the longest time, but now chrome supports command + shift + A -- lifesaver
Aditya
@helenamerk How come I didn't even know about this shortcut? 😭😭 love it 🌟

@adityavsc I use Flow as my tab manager. you can easily switch between different sets of tabs with a few keystrokes or clicks: https://enterflow.app/
