My initial usage for about 2 weeks is that it does everything I need it to. I came from FVD and even though I used it for years there were minor annoyances every so often with it. I put up with it's clunky interface because it worked well, or so I thought. It turns out it was probably one of the main extensions that caused tabs to crash in my browser(Vivaldi, which is what I moved to when Firefox killed FVD). There were even times where, whether through extension error or human "error," my dials would get reset(This last time I deleted storage data for extensions trying to fix a website not loading.) But without an easy unified one file backup(You either needed to copy some code that didn't get every setting, or use another extension to upload to a cloud), it would have been tedious to recover things so I decided to just try something else and I landed on your extension. I find this has a vastly superior interface and offers a lot more customization(like being able to easily give background colors to individual dials. And the "Export all" button works great to save pretty much everything(mainly my thumbnails) and transfer it between different browsers(I may use cloud one day but I really just want an easy offline backup option which this does wonderfully.) One question I have though is does the extension create a cache of the thumbnails as individual files somewhere on the hard drive? At one time I managed to find FVD's cache and it pretty much had small ".png" files with every thumbnail image I used, whether the original was via file or URL. Overall, I'm pretty happy with my setup now(275 dials took a while).

Why developers still think using Ctrl+Alt for shortcuts is a good idea. AltGr (Ctrl+Alt) is used on Polish systems to input diacritics! The options menu hotkey Ctrl+Alt+O clashes with input for ó on Polish keyboard layout. And there is no way to disable it! Are you serious? I was using it for some time now, but not anymore since it makes my experience unusable.

Could not live without it, let alone work without it. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
