You should try Opera as well, it's is the only browser that runs smoothly with many tabs, every other browsers fails with 25+ tabs when it comes to speed and stability. ATM I'm running 50+ tabs with 1.5 GB RAM usage. I want my browser to be open all the time and run smoothly no matter how many tabs I have open, so it can use all the memory it needs, RAM is cheap, 16GB have to be filled with something.
I do like Opera because you can switch tab to the left natively. But where are my Firefox shortcuts ?
Ctrl + 1,2,3... let's switch between tabs. Do you know the equivalent? I'm going to try using it for a while if you say you can run that much tabs and it still runs smoothly. I usually have 40+ tabs open at all times.
Yes, having the tabbar on the left is amazing in Opera, esp. with a 16:9 display. I've uploaded a screenshot for you[1] to show you my current tab list. They're grouped into tasks I'm working on atm. On the left the groups are expanded, on the right minimized.
CTRL+# are reserved for websites stored in SpeedDial. But maybe [2] helps you. I doubt that any experienced Opera user would require such a feature, because the more fluent you become with the UI the more often you swap tabs around. Instead I stored sites into the SpeedDial that I visit regularly, e.g. CTRL+7 is HN :)
That's a lot of tab! That's how we're supposed to browse the web hehe. As for the shortcut replacings Firefox's Ctrl+# it seems to be Alt+w+#. Thanks for the tips.
