Phone= 13
Lappy= 6
Currently just two, the tab for this page and another for Sekibanki’s theme from Touhou 14.
Only 29.
Well, 30 now that I opened this thread in a new tab.
But yeah. That’s on the low side compared to usual for me.
(Firefox on a Raspberry Pi 4.)
how does it do with videos using your browser?
My experience is that the performance of videos depends a lot on how much of the screen the video takes up. More so than on the quality setting (480p, 720p, 1080p). Usually when I want to watch a video, I limit it to about 1/4 of the area of my 1920x1080 screen. But YouTube is pretty watchable. I don’t think even when you select something like 720p@60fps or whatever that it ever actually gets up to 60fps, and sometimes the parts that don’t compress as well drop a few frames (strobing in particular does that), but it’s really not bad if you’re ok with not doing full-screen.
Also, it depends where the video is hosted. If the JS is really light on the page, it’s way more performant. If the JS is really heavy, I sometimes have to wait tens of seconds for it to render the first frame.
But also, this Raspberry Pi is mostly my Lemmy box. Not my main box.
Exactly, the stack necessary to play videos in your browser is no joke and I’ve always used it as a litmus test.
It’s not fool proof – as you pointed out – it’s probably the closest thing to a litmus test there is
Damn, I’m impressed that your rpi can handle that many tabs. Mine can only handle a few loaded pages at a time
My experience is that it has more to do with what’s loaded in the tab than how many tabs are open. One tab can cause everything to run at like 1fps if it’s bloated. (“Graphic design is my passion” kind of pages with tons of animations, usually.) But 100 Lemmy-UI tabs is no problem at all.
I have a bookmark folder called Zombie Tabs that I periodically tidy the zombie tabs into
Also there’s a FF extension called Tab Session Manager that removes the problem of keeping hold of tabs entirely
1 tab on my phone
18 tabs on my laptop across 4 virtual desktops
Phone: 71 (largely grouped, maybe 20 “independent” ones)
Desktop: ~700, spit into 6 windows, and grouped inside those windows, Vivaldi is a life saver if you’re hordingPhone = 1701
Laptop = 6
Desktop = 0
1 on pc 1 on phone 95% of time. 4 or 5 when buying things and can be 8-9 when searching software related answers.
Removed by mod
Phone = 3 on Fennec (Catodon Home Feed, the Lemmy global feed from a Lemmy instance and the Wiktionary definition for “sturgeon”)
Laptop (where I’m currently) = 2 on Waterfox (Catodon writing this reply, and your Lemmy thread as seen from a Lemmy instance)
Shhh… We don’t talk about those
Why did tabs replace bookmarks? Do you not value your RAM? No, I don’t care how many gigabytes of RAM you have, it doesn’t invalidate my point. I have lots of RAM too.
i think modern browsers (at least firefox) doesn’t keep background tabs all active in memory. my friend has like 200 tabs but memory usage isn’t that huge.
Zero on my phone, zero on my PC
Actually only 263 at the moment on my phone.
My phone tells me I have ∞ open.
I’m not sure how to easily count on my computer (firefox), I have vertical tabs on, I have to scroll, and many of the tabs are in collapsed groups…
And before you ask, yes all the tabs are important and necessary.
phone ~50
tablet ~30
pc ~20
work pc ~100
I used to be a no tabs person too, what happened ;-;
