Süper olmuş zen browser ile birlikte kullanıyorum. Firefox anasayfası çok işlevsiz kalıyordu.Bu ihtiyacı gidermiş. Sadece anasayfayı düzenlemek biraz daha kolay olsa daha güzel olurdu.Sürükle bırak mantığı getirilebilir mesela.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Renewed Tab - New Tab requires very minimum permissions.
