MODERATORS
About a decade ago, I heard from a Chrome developer that their statistics showed that over 90% of users never used the multiple tabs feature. I was shocked at the time, but I'd be even more shocked now.
That said, users do seem to fall into two categories: single tab or a gazillion tabs, with no in between.
Me with my youtube page, then my page with tumblr, twitter and skindeep all in my personal desktop seem very organized and all, until I switch to my university desktop and oh my god why do I still have this article open I've done that presentation LAST SEMESTER oh god I have 30 tabs in just this window and I have 5 more windows with fuck knows how many other tabs!!! Then my third desktop is my torrenting one with some search pages open so that I can just refresh the search for a new episode of whatever series/anime I'm watching now, totaling 1 tab in one single window
I somehow fit perfectly in both extremes and the middle ground lol
