Get the "tab stash" extension, you can stash your tabs instead of nuking them. That way you can go back a few months and find things that would be tougher to find through history or other means.
Yet another tab management (YATM) recommendation here. I use the OneTab extension to help me manage tabs. In a recent update, they added the ability to:
A) name tab groups;
B) lock specific groups which mimics the capability of bookmark folders (clicking a link doesn’t remove it from the group).
The extension has helped me reduce the number of open windows on my laptop, among other productivity improvements.
