This is exactly what I needed. I have anxiety problem. If I see some bookmark with which I have a troubled past but cannot bring myself to delete it, I just download the history for the day and then check if I clicked on it or not. I know! I am crazy. Working on it. This extension is a blessing for me. Thank you for creating it, makers of this extension.
