People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

It's not the same problem though because they're not actively draining your memory.

Maybe browsers have made that less of a problem, but only because so many people were misusing tabs in the first place. So they had to make them more like bookmarks so it wasn't strangling people's PC

Yes, but the OP in this thread is talking more about the mental and organizational aspect of tab/bookmarking, not RAM. Someone who isn’t great at managing tabs will also have a hard time managing bookmarks.
