Hallo und o-mano! bittebittebitte eine Option, das das Eingetippte gesucht wird, mit Like-Operator, und nicht jeder einzelne Buchstabe...: da kommt ja kein Filtereffekt zustande: oder!?

Useful app and looks fine, too. ✌️ It's really easy to search for visited and bookmarked sites or between current tabs with a single switch. If you've ever found yourself searching for a bookmark you remembered as save but had no idea where... Just use Lightning, it will surely find it for you (at least it worked for me). 😉
