User reviews

Mostly works as intended with Brave. But oddly the "open in background" with "position far right end of all tabs" can be laggy and it switches to the new tab before reverting to the current ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

シンプルで私の欲しい機能がまとめて使えるので助かってます。右端にタブを開くのと新規タブをバックグラウンドで開くこと、日常的な作業でこれがあるのとないのとでは大違い。長らく更新がなくManifest V3でサポートがなくなるかもと思っていましたが、開発者さんのブログでゆっくりながらもManifest V3対策を進めてくれているみたいと分かりました。複数の拡張機能を開発しているみたいなので、この拡張機能がいつ頃になるかは分かりませんが期待して待っています。しかし、クロームは使いにくくなるアプデがちょいちょいあって対応に困る時がある。
