Great new tab! Everything is very beautiful and stylish, I am glad that there are many settings and you can do everything for yourself. There is also a search for websites by category. I have been looking for such an extension for a long time. The best of everything I've tried. Beautiful, comfortable, with a lot of settings!

I liked this unusual and beautiful extension. It's easy to use and I think it's kind of unique. The interface is also simple and logical, easy to use.
