I always mean to go back to them but never do. It's usually something that is not quite important enough to bookmark. At some point they reach critical mass and I lose the whole session. Tab savers mitigate this, however. Funny thing is, I never used to be a tab guy - I always just opened new pages.

Do tabs use less memory or something? Are they more system resource efficient overall?

I liked Zorin (often recommended for users coming from Windows) which is based off Ubuntu which in turn is based off Debian. Not a fan of Snaps, though. I also value stability over blistering performance and bleeding edge features.

Noob here. My last distro was Zorin (which I liked well enough). Keen to switch to Debian base. Should I jump in and install vanilla Debian or wait for Mint Debian 7? Or should I believe the DistroWatch hype and go for MX?

Would prefer Xfce environment because I'll be running it on 8+ yo laptop and and desktop.
