MrGhostMark (ID: 00000023673ac643) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 08/03/2021 I do not care for the UI. I want to be able to quickly open x amount of random bookmarks I need. The UI requires clicking on the extension to open a menu. Followed by clicking on which folder to open a random bookmark from. This closes the menu so if repeating, you would need to perform two more clicks in order to perform a single action.
