i typically have 5 tabs open, no more, no less. i always have them in the same order so that i can navigate via alt+1, alt+2, alt+3, etc.. one tab is always my personalised homescreen which has all the main links+software i use in a day. having them in the same order means i don't even need to look at the sidebar to navigate to them, it just helps to see what tab i am focused on sometimes.

with glide you can also make keymaps:

glide.keymaps.set("normal", "gd", () => openOrFocus("docs.google.com/document", "https://docs.google.com"), { description: "Go Docs" });

so i can close a tab quickly in normal mode using: tx. then hit gd to open google docs as an example.

i do have a hidden bookmarks bar with a ton of junk and sites i rarely open, but it is there if i need to find something.
