I've been using this extension for so long now but I'm trying to change the browser I use to opera gx, and it would be awesome if this extension could be optimized for it. Opera lets you download and use chrome extensions but it doesn't seem to activate right like with chrome. Regardless I've loved using it all this time!

I love and admire your work, Maya! Been enjoying glance back for about 2 years now and it would be awesome if users can edit their minimal mode (at the very least, change the solid colour of the new tab)
