Firefox luckily has a pinned tab feature for this, where you can pin a tab in a window and it will load all the pinned tabs when you open the browser. For example my webmails and various chat applications (both for work and for leisure), my HomeAssistant dashboard to be able to easily control various things around the house, and a couple of those aforementioned articles I just wanted to save for later. As you're probably aware there exists a whole slew of web-apps nowadays, some of which I'd like to have open with my browser. My new system of starting with a fresh session every time would however be a bit tedious if it closed absolutely all my tabs. Part of the problem here is that I've just never been much of a bookmarks person, so I've just kept all the stuff I might want to read one day open as a tab.

My habit was so bad that I could easily amass some 100-200 odd tabs before I cleared them out. This means that every time I turn my computer off for the day it will delete all the random documenation pages and weird links people have sent me over the course of the day so they don't slowly add up. In order to stifle my tab-hoarding habits I have recently set my Firefox install to not recover sessions when I restart the browser. Fixing a broken Firefox session 27th April 2021 - Guide
