I would probably use a feature that automatically grouped tabs together using AI, because I'm so lazy about tabs myself and don't want to fiddle around with groups manually.

In the meantime, I'm wondering when local LLM support will hit the HTML living standard and web browsers, because I'd like to play around with it without requiring external libraries.

I thought I finally found the culprit behind Firefox taking upwards of five minutes to restore my tabs. Turns out my computer is just really old and feeling its age.
