User reviews

I get the convenience of making my local IDE in sync with the website, but it replaced my new tab page with a feed of their site. That is not what the extension advertised to do; And honestly, who wants that?

Really? Replacing the new tab page with no option to turn it off?

Why hijack my start page and new tab page?? The main function works fine btw. Now turning the plugin off again.
