What is Reddit's opinion of Tablerone?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

It's not fully clear from this thread what your situation is. See this article about all the ways in which you can restore tabs.

You might want to consider installing an extension that (auto)saves your tabs so you can always restore them: https://tabler.one

If you go under History there should be a "Recently closed" section from which you could restore all of them. If not, you're probably out of luck getting them all back in one go. You'r only other option is opening full History and searching and scrolling.

You might want to use a session manager extension that lets you (auto)save tabs and recover sessions. I recommend https://tabler.one/features/restore-tabs-chrome/

Session Buddy is great, but automatically saved snapshots end up duplicating everything. Unless you spend time each day sorting things it quickly becomes a mess. I switched to https://tabler.one because it's easier to find tabs with screenshots and takes almost no effort to keep things organised.

That sounds like a pretty fun feature. Not sure if it's helpful on a day to day basis though.

I also save tons of things I come across online. For reading things later I use Instapaper. To archive articles and documents relevant to my work I use Notion clipper to import them into relevant project folders.

For everything else I have been struggling for years to find a better solution than primitive bookmarks. There's several extensions out there, but most I tested were either buggy, ugly, or both.

I now use Tablerone which saves multiple tabs/session and neatly organises them into a chronological view. You can also connect related sessions with tags, add notes to individual pages and even export collections into lists or tables. Highly recommended.

Absolutely! I used to struggle with the same problem. I'd have 100+ tabs and ~10 windows open at any given time.

If you ask me, browser tabs are #1 cause of distractions even for non-ADHD people. Unlike a desk where you leave bunch of things open and stacked on top of each other to come back to things, bookmarking tabs is like chucking them away in some drawer in the basement. Which is why people hoard them like crazy hoping they'll be able to sort and process them some day. There's no way a person can be productive in that mess. It's full of distraction and a constant guilt trip anxiety of getting crushed under the weight of accumulating work.
I use Instapaper to save reading material for later. It imports entire articles/pages so you can perform full text search and has a great reading experience.
But for everything else there was no good solution so I created the Tablerone extension. It enables me to batch save tabs/sessions and organise them with a tagging system. I think you will like it because of its visual timeline where you can see screenshot previews. It enables you to easily go back in time and find things even if you forgot the name.

Several other ADHD users love it thus far. If you give it a try, please get in touch. I'd love to hear about your experience. Good luck!

I encourage everyone to try TABLERONE. It's a free session management extension designed to serve both as workspace management as well as bookmarking tool.

It comes with most features you'd expect (such as tags), and some you wouldn't (e.g. tab sleep, copy all URLs, share, etc.). It's also 100% private (local storage and no account).

Disclosure: I'm the the founder of the project.

Hi, which bookmark manager you use now? I wasn't happy with any of them so I made Tablerone. You can easily import One Tab and Session Buddy data, plus your native browser bookmarks. Hit me up if you give it a try, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

When it comes to restoring tabs, all browsers are somewhat equally primitive. For heavy tab users the best option is to use a session manager extension to (auto)save tabs and recover sessions. I recommend https://tabler.one

Ouch. Sorry for your loss. The only other way is opening Full History (cmd+y) and searching for individual pages and/or scrolling back in time.

Very true. But you could also use multiple windows to compartmentalise things thematically and keep a low tab count. Using a session manager to save tabs/sessions is especially handy. (e.g. https://tabler.one)

I think https://tabler.one would solve your problem. It's a tab manager extension that:
- autosaves tabs/windows
- restores entire browsing sessions
- shows thumbnail previews for each open/saved tab
- has powerful organisation tools

Exactly. It's the equivalent of keeping paperwork on your desk and postit reminders as a visual reminder to get back to things later. Bookmarks are not a good tool for that because they are an equivalent of tucking things away in a drawer (that's already full of old crap).

That said, tab hoarding is a bad habit that can quickly get out of hand and become a disfunctional mess that distracts you and slows you down.

The solution that works for me is to use a tab manager extension for organising tabs into workspaces that I can easily open and close, save temporary sessions for later, and bookmark useful things into collections. I recommend https://tabler.one

Nice! If there's one thing Win is better than Mac, its handling browser windows as separate processes so you can alt+tab them.

I do the same thing, plus use https://tabler.one to search and switch tabs. The great thing is I can also save sessions for later and reopen them to pick up where I left off.

All the time. Not only are they a distraction that easily leads to procrastination, they serve as a reminder or everything I haven't had the time to process and makes me feel like I'm lagging behind everything in my life and not doing enough.

I went from min. 50 (which in practice usually meant 100+), down to less than 10 at any given time by using https://tabler.one. Highly recommended.

Yup, that's a classic one. Unfortunately there's no way to get them back than going through History. If you know what you're looking for you can use search, otherwise you're screwed.

Extensions like https://tabler.one let you save important sessions and auto-archive all closed sessions so you can recover them later, if you need them.

That's because our mind doesn't work in a linear way as we're trying to force it to. Focus is a muscle that requires training and genuine interest in the task that's hard to fake.

Thinking and acting non-linearly is not a problem. Getting lost in several mental threads is. A solution that works for me is to use Things todo app which lets me create a new task with a simple shortcut when I think of it, and carry on with what I'm working on right now.

I also use https://tabler.one to save and organise my browsing sessions. Having open only what I'm currently working on, reduces distractions by other lingering things.

I completely appreciate where you are coming from, because I struggled with the same problem. For me, the solution wasn't to throw away all tabs, but to find a way to easily save and organise them, so I can come back to them when/if I need them. I use https://tabler.one for that. You should give it a try.

I think https://tabler.one is closer to what you're looking for. At least in terms of a sessions list that can be reordered and organised.

None of the tab managers I tried save the content of web pages. For that you can use Instapaper, or Notion or Evernote clipper. But it works on 1-by-1 basis.

I don't think any tab management solution out there is able to preserve associated history (back/next pages)

If you're using the same browser on both devices you can sign in with the same profile and your bookmarks will be automatically synced.

If you want to create collections of links (e.g. bookmark folders) that can be exported, you can use an extension such as Tablerone to export/import specific sessions: https://tabler.one/

There are a few ways to get them back.

1. History + search (if you know exactly what you're looking for and they've been opened around roughly the same time. Otherwise you're screwed.)
2. Taskbar menu > History > Recently closed — this will show you individual tabs and entire windows if you closed them with Cmd+Shift+W or red dot button
3. Use a tab manager extension such as Tablerone which enables you to easily save important sessions as well as keeps an archive of closed session so you can restore them — https://tabler.one/

Hey, I can totally relate to your problem. Went down the exact same path a while ago. What you need is Tablerone. It's similar to OneTab in the way you save the entire session with one click (but way more reliable and better designed). You can custom name your sessions, tag them, add them to favourites, add notes for individual tabs, etc. It also has auto-saving archive for restoring closed or crashed sessions. https://tabler.one/

Only as many as I need at any given time. (Best case 1-5, worst case up to 30.) The rest are safely saved with Tablerone and occasionally put to sleep to save system resources. https://tabler.one/

Same here. It's super annoying. I solved the problem with Tablerone tab management extension. It lets me manually save important sessions and recover entire sessions that I accidentally closed or lost due to browser crash.

I would recommend switching to Tablerone https://tabler.one/. It's much sleeker in the way it generates thumbnails for a better overview, enables you to faster navigate active sessions, and automatically records closed sessions so you can easily recover them.

Definitely useful technique. I use Things todo app and every morning create a shortlist for Today, reschedule or indefinitely postpone non-priority items. Then if necessary, write 3 of the top priority ones on paper right in front of me so even if I do get distracted by whatever it's there physically to remind me.

Also, I use Tablerone to manage all the distractions hiding in browser tabs: https://tabler.one/. (It's funny because its slogan is Less tabs, more focus. Great minds...)

Haha any particular reason you don't close them all at once?

Btw you might want to save them, especially if it took long to research and find them. Tablerone is a great tool to save and organise entire browsing sessions: https://tabler.one/

You can try installing Tablerone on his PC so it puts idle tabs to sleep and frees up system resources. You can even enable overnight auto-save feature which will save and close all open tabs. https://tabler.one/

As much as I'm an avid Brave user, I'm not sure how much bandwidth and energy it actually saves. It would be interesting to see realistic calculation on a personal and collective user base level.

Anyways, if you want to do yourself and your laptop a favour start using Tablerone to get a grip on tab hoarding and sessions management: https://tabler.one/

Great post. Thanks for sharing.

Personally I had a lot of issues focusing because of too many apps and especially browser tabs open. Stuff I've been hoarding because there was no good place to store them. And because it would take ages to save them one by one. Then when I was traversing through windows and tabs, I would get distracted and go off on tangents...

I pretty much solved this with https://tabler.one extension. I simply save everything I don't need while I'm focusing on completing the current MIT. And it gives me peace of mind knowing everything is there and I can pick up on it exactly where I left off later without spending time setting everything up as it was before.

Highly recommended.

Which bookmarking apps have you tried?

https://tabler.one let's you organise links based on browsing sessions, you can also connect related sessions with tags. You can add notes for each link either by typing or selecting content on the page. Is that what you're looking for?
