There used to be an addon, “Open tabs from clipboard URLs” but I can’t seem to find it anymore.

The best I find now is, an addon that opens a box, then you paste your URLs in it, then you press a button.

That’s not what I want. I want a toolbar button, I press it, the tabs open.

So that I can opens large blocks of URLs.

Also, I would like another addon which opens large blocks of URLs but does not load them immediately.

I have LoadOnSelect3 for this, but the problem with that one, is that it opens special moz:// pages until you load the tab. And that breaks searching and filtering tabs because the tab title and URL are not the real ones.

    Thats insane. But doesn’t necessarily answer why you would need thousands of tabs actually open. It just sounds like so much effort to keep tabs open when you could just bookmark them and use a keyword to instantly go there when you need to.

      I find the bookmark manager terrible, I rather paste URL in notepad than endure the bookmark manager’s UI. I do end up dumping thousands of tabs into the bookmark manager, but never in 30 years have I bothered to use a bookmark. Except for the bookmarks toolbar.

      Keeping the extremely primitive bookmark manager organized would suck up more of my time than all other browser task combined.

      This discussion not about the bookmark manager, it is about pasting tabs from my clipboard. And the answer has been found. Unfortunately it is a two click process.

      And opening 100+ tabs at once still clogs up the system because they all load immediately.

        I use keywords for my bookmarks… way more effective then tabs… and it doesn’t eat up computing power or RAM
