So I'm caught in this habit of a cycle where I open a million tabs on firefox until sooner or later the browser crashes, and when I restart it back up I just continue to open up more tabs while leaving the restore tab open. Am I gonna break my PC?

Anyone?

Got the same issue. You are not alone. My pattern includes, that I've got a lot of interessts and want to read everything I can related, but don't got the time to do it after all the tabs are open.

no. the program has nothing to do with the OS or the rest of the computer.
I mean, the crashes happen because firefox uses too much memory, and that could also kill other programs, but this shouldn't be a problem in most cases, unless you are writing big files to the disk or something.
OP are you me? I started using an add-on called TooManyTabs.

this. if you want to avoid crashing your browser, use add-ons. I use session manager (not sure if it comes integrated in the browser) for saving and restoring sessions. install both TooManyTabs and session manager...
Yeah, when you fill up your ram with bullshit, windows can't write cache information to it correctly which ends up in corrupted registry entries.
Accumulate enough of those, and you'll start getting blue-screens or complete system lock-ups. If you don't solve that issue, then there's a chance you could brick your motherboard.
>using firefox
That's your problem.
Use opera

Opera is dead. Old Opera users these days are using Vivaldi, that is the true successor of the old Opera.
