It is a list of URLs, it can come from many places. I'm not just closing and reopening 100+ tabs from and to the same place. Example copying tabs from one computer, or vm, to another.
The list could also be out of a text editor.
You know that if you setup a mozilla account, you can view tabs from any device/vm? and its supposed to be e2ee
Yes, I use that between my main pc and phone. But doing that for multiple hundreds of tabs gets quite clunky compare to copy and pasting lists of urls.
I loved to see the statistics on how often you use each of those tabs
It really depends what the content of each tab is and if it has what I'm looking for. The whole thing about having loaded tabs versus bookmarks is that you can search and skim them, without a 5-10 second pause every time you go to the next one. Not that the bookmark manager even has a "magazine" system that would let you skip between bookmark with a single button like a tab does. Still this is very far from optimal. Firefox has an opaque tab data discard system and no tools at all for searching all content in all tabs. It also lacks a automatic AI tab categorization feature. You can't even assign tags to tabs, even manually.
