(This is the second question in a series including Is it possible to save a web browser (specifically, Google Chrome) session and/or cache to your computer permanently? If so, how, with what tools?, sharing as would be expected a similar context. While the context is written from my perspective, I'd imagine there are several people with similar problems that would like to know if this solution is available and how.)
Apologies in advance if this is not a fitting question for this platform—if it isn't, please don't bite me and direct me to the right platform if applicable. BTW, I am asking this right now as solving the problem-to-be-mentioned that an affirmative answer to this will assist in solving is one aspect of my New Years' Resolutions, and would be a wonderful belated Christmas gift.
Anyway, I have a major problem with the Google Chrome browser on my computer. Due to several factors, I have wound up with having over 1200 tabs on 16 windows open on Google Chrome. This is immensely inconvenient for obvious reasons, and has led to dysfunction in many areas of my life. A large reason why this has come to be is a feedback loop of incomplete garbage collection. I open new tabs to look at something (more closely) and or comment on it, which of course takes time and often requires doing in several discontinuous sessions. Sometimes, either due to my computer randomly deciding to update, my browser crashing or updating, or occasionally deliberate restarts, the browser is restarted, clearing its cache and resulting in the work-in-progress at the moment being deleted and occasionally whole webpages being changed or deleted outright. If I were to estimate, since 2019 about half of my content longer than 3 paragraphs has had to be rewritten from scratch at least once because of that. Since new stuff is constantly coming into be, this results in more and more "to be completed" stuff accumulating.
And yes, I understand that solving the cache-clearing issue will accentuate one of the main nasty symptoms of high tab count—massive RAM usage—but hopefully, if this is possible, this (along with other measures) will allow me to end the cycle and allow me to slowly reduce the tab count to a reasonable level. (And JSYK, trying to simply archive every one of my comments and other content before on an external document while I type them has historically resulted in me needing to spend almost twice as much time per comment than normal.)
