I have a tab group on my desktop with tools to maintain my Plex server. I think there are 4 tabs in it. That's collapsed, but there. Then I'll have the one tab I'm actually using, often a second tab on another monitor streaming music or video.
0 tabs on phone.
0 tabs on laptop.
Reading through these comments... There's a lot of psychos in here. Some of y'all have hundreds of tabs open. Why?
My experience is that the performance of videos depends a lot on how much of the screen the video takes up. More so than on the quality setting (480p, 720p, 1080p). Usually when I want to watch a video, I limit it to about 1/4 of the area of my 1920x1080 screen. But YouTube is pretty watchable. I don't think even when you select something like 720p@60fps or whatever that it ever actually gets up to 60fps, and sometimes the parts that don't compress as well drop a few frames (strobing in particular does that), but it's really not bad if you're ok with not doing full-screen.
Also, it depends where the video is hosted. If the JS is really light on the page, it's way more performant. If the JS is really heavy, I sometimes have to wait tens of seconds for it to render the first frame.
But also, this Raspberry Pi is mostly my Lemmy box. Not my main box.
My experience is that it has more to do with what's loaded in the tab than how many tabs are open. One tab can cause everything to run at like 1fps if it's bloated. ("Graphic design is my passion" kind of pages with tons of animations, usually.) But 100 Lemmy-UI tabs is no problem at all.
Phone: 71 (largely grouped, maybe 20 "independent" ones)
Desktop: ~700, spit into 6 windows, and grouped inside those windows, Vivaldi is a life saver if you're hording
I set them to close automatically after 24 hours, because I have having more tabs open than I can track. I explicitly don't use them as "read later" bookmarks.

My phone tells me I have ∞ open.
I'm not sure how to easily count on my computer (firefox), I have vertical tabs on, I have to scroll, and many of the tabs are in collapsed groups...
And before you ask, yes all the tabs are important and necessary.

I don't know. Firefox displays an infinity symbol after 99.

I have just tidied up a bit… my phone was on ~470ish tabs. (Btw, did you know that the limit in safari on iOS is 500 tabs?)
Now my phone has 50.

TootSweet@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2d
Only 29.
Well, 30 now that I opened this thread in a new tab.
But yeah. That's on the low side compared to usual for me.

how does it do with videos using your browser?

Damn, I'm impressed that your rpi can handle that many tabs. Mine can only handle a few loaded pages at a time

On laptop, go until browser crashes in a loop.
One time, had to reboot three times so I could close some of the windows before they locked up.

In the browser you ask? 194 + 9 incognito.

I have a bookmark folder called Zombie Tabs that I periodically tidy the zombie tabs into

Also there's a FF extension called Tab Session Manager that removes the problem of keeping hold of tabs entirely

Currently just two, the tab for this page and another for Sekibanki's theme from Touhou 14.

Laptop 1 (yt subscription page, which is my homepage) and phone 0.
Loading a page means the other pages have issues if they are also trying to load and my internet can't really do 2 things at once.

Work computer: 52 across 3 browsers, with 4 total 'tab groups'
Home computer: 22 with 1 browser and 3 'tab groups'
Phone: 0 (unless the new tab page counts that opens when I open my browser)
