I don't like the UI and user experience. Other vertical tab extensions that use the sidebar work much better.

UNSAFE SPAM! When you add this extension to chrome, it automatically redirects you to the developer's website "brahmastra.app", which redirects to another website that "verifies you are human" and automatically downloads something called GuardMate.msix onto your computer. This is against Google policies, it is spam, it is sleazy, it's underhanded, and it is manipulative. Your extension takes access to every website we go to, so it can take that access and feed it to your extra download. Google would not allow this app to exist if they knew you were forcing users to download secondary software from a third-party website. Also, "Guard-Mate" does not at all seem related to this extension, and none of the extension information on this page shows any reference to either it or the "developer's" website, brahmastra.app, which leads me to believe this was a hostile takeover, and this extension is NOT SAFE. Avoid this extension, do NOT add to Chrome, and report to Google. I don't know how they got "featured" by Google, but this is NOT OKAY. This is an absolute violation of Google Chrome's best practices and policies as viewable here: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/webstore/program-policies/malicious-and-prohibited

Unfortunately, there is no way to navigate through windows if there are more than 30 of them - there is no scroll bar on the extension page
