User reviews
Хорошая штука, сменил на неё экспресс-панель. Минусы: не удобно расположены кнопки в окне браузера; нельзя вынести созданные мной вкладки (наборы сайтов в закладках) отдельно в окно браузера. В предыдущем расширении они были расположены как вкладки слева сверху, а тут для переключения наборов нужно сперва открыть эту панель (дополнительно, лишнее движение). Ещё не всегда подтягивает иконки/картинки сохранённых сайтов (но можно поставить свою скачанную картинку, поэтому смотрятся кнопки не однородно). В остальном хорошо. Судя по логам, лишних запросов тоже не делает.
