No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Do none of these people know about the bookmarks bar? And that you can literally put folders on it if you want?
What do you mean they're not visible, of course they are
I'm never actually going to look in the bookmarks folder so why would I put anything there?
Bookmarks bar. It's literally a toolbar under your URL bar that you can have displaying always.
You can put folders on that bar (with no name if you want so it takes up almost no space) if you want.
Hilarious
Hahahaha, right.
Pardon? Why was that funny?
The level people are willing to delude themselves into their poor habit in this thread is breathtaking to me.
I guess these people just can’t be bothered to organize stuff. I find a bit puzzling that they prefer to live with chaos like that. I would feel very anxious and frustrated if I had to deal with a hundred tabs in a single window all the time.
Shockingly, some people function differently to you.
Maybe they have a superpower for staying calm even though everything around them is a total mess. I know I don’t have that power.
The whole entire world is a giant fucked up mess run by mentally handicapped billionaires. Shits fucking terrifying and we're all cooked. Having a neat browser window isn't going to fix that.
True.
I just like to do what I can to keep certain things neat and tidy. Gives me some sense of control even though the rest of the world is far beyond fixing.
The point is that it may look like a mess to you but that doesn't mean it is objectively a mess. Hundreds of open tabs can still have logic and organisation even if that is not obvious to you.
Fair enough.
Many people here have a system where different topics are isolated to their own browser windows, and each window can have 10-20 tabs. That sort of system makes sense to me.
So, what’s the system where you keep 100 tabs in a single window? How does that work?
Well I guess I don't have a particular or consistent system but I can find what I need pretty quickly. I have a few tab groups for stuff like youtube, bandcamp which helps a lot, and I use Simple Tab Groups in firefox which has been amazing (but I've only been using one group/window so this is kind of defunct now), but otherwise there are areas of tabs which are related and they are roughly in chronological order. I will manually move tabs so there are areas of certain topics. I know I can scroll all the way to the right for old tabs, and then left of that a specific topic I was learning about at that time, then left of that something roughly related by topic or time, and so on until all the way to the left is the most recent tabs (and then a bunch of pinned tabs that I use very often). It's like a map of time and topic, and not just a bunch of random tabs like you might imagine.
I don't even really have mine organized. I tried at one point, but meh...
It's still all there at the top of my browser, right under the URL bar, except they are all open tabs, because that's not what tabs are for.
