User reviews

Nice it works but one issue. When you have the button for it pinned, if you want to quickly open and close it that way it takes more focus. Cause it adds a "close side panel" pin when it opens, which shifts the others, when in reality, you can just click the same button you used to open it to also close it. Maybe remove this close pin?
