I have three open and feel like its a bit much.

Same How do people navigate all those tabs? Or do they always open a new one? It's SO much clutter

I have three pinned tabs, and about 10 more important ones. Here's what I generally have open:

Pinned @ work:

  • Jira
  • Okta
  • Postman (I'm a BE dev)

"Essential" tabs at work:

  • about 5 main Github repos (we have over a dozen, but I mostly stick to those)
  • a couple Confluence pages
  • a couple Google Docs
  • QA test run page

Pinned at home:

  • email
  • wavemaker - creative writing, and I always forget the hostname

"Essential" tabs at home:

  • my gitlab
  • a couple game wikis
  • FOSS projects in development I depend on

I can get to pretty much everything else quickly with DDG bangs or memory.

So at work, a "clean" browser is mostly filled with tabs, and at home it's about half filled with tabs. I keep the essential ones on the far left, so "close to right" generally works well.

Yeah same. Discord, gmail and whatsapp web, plus whichever ones I'm actively using. And those will be closed by end of day at the very latest.
