User reviews

I used to use Random Tab Switch, but that tab randomizer didn't like "sleeping pages". My request is could you make a "dark mode" version of the icon (another color other than black) so I can see it with my dark theme? Thanks dev/devs.

Seems to work great, and there is an option to choose "only for current window" which is handy. Thanks for helping me with my tab hoardering :)
