Questions & Answers
Why adding separate extension for something that needs only two clicks in the menu? -- Because with the downloads button in the toolbar you’ll access the downloads in one click, which is 50% faster. If you’re a serious downloader you know it’s more convenient to access the download page in one click.
But extensions eat system memory, isn’t it a waste of resources to download extension just for quick shortcut to the downloads page?
