Hello guys,i've been an emacs user for 6 years and i have a question for you: how do you use tabs?.

I'm not a programmer but i need to program and i find emacs really convinient,maybe i'm weird but i just discovered the tab feature today after all this time and i thought ut could be usefull not to call ibuffer and admire the 50 buffers opened before searching by name.

Usually i just C-x arrow key until i find the buffer i want but it's really fustrating when i have lots of them opened,it's not a problem having the tabs on top since i have disable the "menu line" and sometimes the modeline as well.

Is it possible to change tabs as i change the buffers? do you think it's a good idea use emacs client with tabs since all the buffers should be accessible between emacs sessions? does the tab change this behaviour or i can switch between them instead?

Just to let you know in advance,my setup is really simple: i've never used spacemacs/doom,i don't like evil so i only use the stocks bindings, if i don't consider a couple of actions, i have a vanilla emacs configured more for supporting what i need than many advanced packages for advanced usage.
