I just don’t use tab grouping (yet) and I don’t want this particular auto-group feature which I keep triggering by accident

    Thousand of tabs per day? Let’s just say 2000 tabs a day, now we are in the thousands of them… Let’s say you sleep 8 hours and visit the toilet, eat and so forth, for 2 hours a day. That’s 14 hours left… That’s about 2,4 tabs you use a minute, constantly… I wonder how you manage that, and what you use them for - I’d burn my brain out, trying to relate to the content of 2000 tabs a day… And you might be managing way more… But good that you resolved it…

      I can easily open 100 tabs in a minute, for instance, from a list of search result, pickup up promising leads, then flipping through them, I bound the next tab/previous tab actions to my 4th and 5th mouse buttons and if I press both together, it closes the current tab so I can move through them faster. I also select large groups of tabs to make a new window out of it. The moment this issue arises is when I pick one tab out of somewhere and put it in a particular place a particular order in the list of tabs, if you didn’t put it exactly in the gap between two tabs and hesitate for 240ms, then it would autogroup it, often without realizing what had happenned.

      It’s more than 2000 some particularly busy days, no I don’t read them all thoroughly, just at a glance I can often tell if it contains what I’m searching for. I wish there where better ways to search all that crap locally, locally save all the tab contents without having to do any more clicks than I already do.
