      does this mean you keep tabs open between computer sessions?

      I never even considered that. I can't handle more than 5 tabs at a time which probably tells me quite a lot about the environment I function in. Blows my mind you could start a session with tabs already open though.

      I actually don't understand—are you actively using those?? I can't see a use-case for so many...either save the links for later or actively take notes from a page surely

      they're generally for a project that's ongoing but not yet completed. Would be way more work to save the links or take notes then to just keep them open

      Do you know about http://Are.na ? you can just copy a URL into a categorised 'block' or project. Might be worth looking at

      Arena seems to have been straggling along for like 6 years at this point, never quite breaking through, what’s the deal?

          Hmm I don't quite know what others use it for so I can't really say if it's *good* honestly, but for me it's just a way to categorically dump URLS, PDFs, images and notes. I tend to use a Are.na+Roam+Anki as a stack. I follow people like @tobyshorin to steal interesting content
