Limit tabs possible?

Hello!

I am a tab hoarder and can not control myself.

Some of my tabs I had for months.

I still tell myself that ONE day I will read that exiting article about Kant.

Well, not gonna happen.

Are there any apps or extensions for Safari that will let you lock tabs to a certain amount?

Limitation of the number of open tabs in Safari. I paid a lot of money for an iPhone. Why am I forced to be limited by the number of open tabs in the browser? Unused tabs require incredible resources to keep them open? As far as I understand in technical aspects, these are just string in a file or files in a folder. It turns out that Safari is not able to contain more than 500 files or strings? What is the reason for this restriction??! I have no desire to close an open tab every time - I opened it and forgot. Also, I have no desire to close all previously opened tabs - suddenly something opened earlier will be useful to me, then it will be easier to find it in my tabs than on the Internet. Effective use is when you do not need to do actions that you do not need to do. Because of someone's creative decision, I am forced to count and process each of my tabs. I demand to implement the possibility of canceling such a restriction. This is a simple option in the browser settings. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

You can add tabs to Safari until you run out of RAM, or it hits some unknown Safari maximum tab count. There is nothing in the application to limit the number of tabs, and if you explore the Safari extensions area of the Mac App Store, you will not likely find anything there to do so either.

There are other organizational means within Safari to forego a myriad of browser tabs.
