2023-05-17	Makalo	not working with mouse so where is the back button lol? Click it literally? Whats the point?!
2023-02-17	Michael Adrian	Please make this work in Edge? I could not find one that works for Edge.
2023-01-19	Michael Johnson	This should be built-in web browsers!! Only regret is it won't work on tabs loading "forever" (spinning favicon) like direct hd .jpeg picture links and sometimes even reddit take +3s to load

2021-12-16	A F	It's perfect! exactly what I wanted Some websites just open files in new tabs when you click on them, now I can use my mouse back button to go back. It just doesn't work on new tabs which is fine by me
