so you can have 70 tabs open that you've completely forgotten about after minimizing the window and open 50 more in another window have to keep memory manufacturers in business

ngl edge has the nicest implementation of vertical tabs i've used and it's causing me to use it for heavy documentation reading sessions rather than firefox

carry on then posted:one day you'll all discover the majesty of the second browser window Firefox has this nifty feature called pinned tabs: If you pin a tab, it's moved all the way to the left, displayed in a compact icon-only manner and more importantly it always gets opened when you start the browser. Incredibly useful to have e-mail and calendar and whatever else open automatically (especially with containers which allow you to have the same website opened with different accounts signed in). Except if the window with the pinned tabs isn't the last one you close. Then they're gone the next time.

Clearly the correct solution is to maintain your tabs as a priority queue and then use "close tabs to right" once you exceed a certain threshold.

I just declare "tab bankruptcy" every day or two by closing ff. Most are diffs that slack opened in a new tab when I forgot I had already opened the link earlier.

I go through a personal ceremony whenever I am done with a programming or board bring up problem by closing 20+ open tabs that pertain to said problem. Feels good man.

Wayland-Protocols 1.21 Released With XDG_Activation, Staging Replaces Unstable wayland-protocols must be like, the most important wayland related project there is all of wayland's issues stems from not having defined protocols for how you communicate between programs

I'll be honest. I do not understand wayland and why it doesn't work the way it does. I've read long blog posts using lots of formatting and graphs and whatnot, and I still can't conceptualise how wayland is supposed to draw a bunch of consistently styled windows on a screen.

BobHoward posted:p sure "consistently styled" is out of scope for wayland and window style lives in a higher abstraction layer there exists a wayland protocol to ask the desktop manager to give you a decorated window, but i think only kde implements it as they are devoted disciples of the church of server side decorations. otherwise the client is responsible for everything. it's not something you have to worry about if you are using a toolkit like qt or gtk, but "just give me a basic window to draw stuff in" libraries like sdl need to either draw controls themselves or use something like libdecor

Wayland does client-side window decorations because because of some blah-blah-blah about tearing or gapless resizing or something like that it works for Windows but Windows has a single UI library that every application uses which does the window drawing for you, Wayland naturally didn't bother to include anything like that Windows also managed to add support for dealing with unresponsive applications after like 15 years of sucking, Wayland didn't really bother with that either

the linux gui stack being abstracted in the name of 'freedom' to independently swap the display server, compositor, and desktop environment is why it will always suck

Thunderbird is actually seeing more active development. They pulled several addons into the core and are working on a GUI revamp. Having both S/MIME and OpenPGP in core Thunderbird is genuinely useful (since I use both for reasons). All I really need now is CardDAV integration in the address book.

I would like that if I could self host on the my gaming rig, but I could just use remote desktop for that. Also my m1 can easily handle a hundred tabs already at the expense of ssd writes.
