What mobile browser you like? Safari? Firefox is pretty good on a modern android phone (my Mate 20 Pro)
Quite frankly, none. Fennec is the least objectionable, generally. EinkBro is quite well-suited to e-ink devices. https://fossdroid.com/a/einkbro.html
(I can understand all the reasons why it happened, and who finds it attractive among users, but still, it's a horrible environment.)
Here's a radical solution - close tabs when you're done with them. There's a little known feature in browsers called bookmarks that's like tabs, but they don't consume any RAM or bandwidth when you're not using them, and they don't clutter your UI. You can search them, group them into "tab folders", even synchronize them across devices. Spread the word - bookmarks are the future.
That's the problem, I have nearly 100 tabs open because I am not done with them .

I switched to Firefox for Tree Style Tabs.
I only stay with Firefox for tree style tabs. I think, the day chrome makes TST possible, is the day Firefox loses a large fraction of it's remaining power users.
I’m interested in trying.

Having 100 tasks going at once seems like a chaotic nightmare to me - but different working styles I guess.
Tree style tabs on the side of my window absolutely changed my computing life. I stopped seeing tabs as a collection of what Im doing and instead started using them + the browsers inclination to save my tabs across restarts to track everything. Ill have a tree of tabs for blogs im reading, a tree for work stuff, a tree for amazon orders, etc. All that context can be closed in a single click. Ill have hundreds of tabs…
I am one such tab-overloaded computer user. There are a few tools that help me effectively manage a large number of tabs. (No, Firefox's Tree Style Tabs isn't one of them - while it is great, it is not powerful enough for me.) The best experience I've had so far is with Tabs Outliner for Google Chrome and Chromium-based browsers. I find that it's UI requires the least amount of clicks and remains performant even when…
I scrolled all the way to here since I expected way more mentions of Tabs Outliner. It’s kept me stuck on Chrome for so long, but now with the death of The Great Suspender extension my hand has been forced to build my own personal replacement as I want to get off chrome again… Losing the great suspender means I can’t in concert with Tabs Outliner switch in and out groups of dozens of tabs at a time. Now doing this ch…

New Firefox installs have Ctrl+tab run chronologically, and you can this behaviour for existing installs as well if you want.
I cannot stand this functionality and it's the first thing I disable on new installations. For me, Ctrl+tab is right and Ctrl+shift+tab is left. I much prefer Firefox's awesome bar navigation when jumping around. % app will show all tabs with a title or URL containing app, * yo does the same for bookmarks containing yo, and ^ for history. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/address-bar-keyboard-sh...

It used to do this and now seems like there's no way to get this behavior back

For me, tabs are very much a manifestation of what’s going on in my mind at that very instant. Basically a cache. But once I’m done with my task or work is over, I’ll close every. Single. One. The fear of not being able to recall information is a classic busy-syndrome feeling. Sometimes I also have to tell myself “I’ll probably remember what I worked in yesterday, so maybe there’s no need to panic after all”.
> But once I’m done with my task or work is over, I’ll close every. Single. One. What if you're never done? I have so many tabs open about things I was researching or studying. Something else came up and I had to prioritize... Eventually I forgot about the tabs.
Bookmarks for frequently visited recurring links.
Bookmarks that I visit multiple times a day (Calendar, Email, etc) get pinned.
