Open tabs from Mac A on Mac B

[Silly John Fatty]

I have over 100 open tabs in Safari on my Mac Pro. It runs on High Sierra and doesn't have iCloud tabs.

How can I merge all the open tabs to my new Mac mini?

I assume this is in Safari, this needs browser specific solution.
Open Tabs might migrate if you would migrate part of account using Migration assistant, but I am not sure if you can migrate account from HS to Ventura directly and what migrates there.
You can save Bookmarks for all open tabs (in Bookmarks menu of current Safari) and migrate/sync manually or automatically Bookmarks. Then reopen whichever tabs you need from Bookmarks.

Sorry, yes, it's in Safari!

I don't want to use migration assistant, but I've been thinking of bookmarking just everything. That would be the worst case scenario.

I've also tried copying the LastSession.plist file, but Safari on the new Mac apparently doesn't recognise it. Probably the gap between High Sierra and Ventura is too big for that.

I strongly suggest to bookmark everything, if only for security reasons. I did have cases when Safari after some action (Safari crash or system upgrade or whatever) opened without prior tabs opened. And history has limits, so at the end I needed to find some of the pages again. relying on open tabs only is not very robust solution and may fail.

I think you're right. I think I'll go with that. Thanks, buddy.
