Александр Ковальчук (ID: 000000248c3fc60c) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/08/2023 Background adjusting is malfunctioning - buttons gather towards the center of the menu when I point my mouse, rendering them inaccessible. Additionally, new paid options were introduced, and the developer is requesting further payments even after I have already made a purchase. While I understand the need for additional funding to support the product, the implementation of these requests appears excessive to me.

(ID: 00000012c436bf7e) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/12/2022 После обновления дизайн был изменён в худшую сторону, а пользоваться подобным плагином можно только из-за подходящего дизайна. Убрали привычные полезные функции, теперь нет истории вкладок справа, нет выбора цветов для групп вкладок. Но авторы не только убирали функции, они ещё и добавили новые, очень важные и нужные каждому пользователю! Большое сообщение о модных политических тенденциях будет ждать вас и выскочит как эксгибиционист из кустов, хотите вы его или нет.

Aleksander Shulgin (ID: 0000003421912482) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/17/2022 закладки теперь при наведении в право не появляются... смысл того приложения ушел к нулю (очень хотелось бы написать матом на криворуких разработчиков) ВЕРНИТЕ ЗАКЛАДКИ, ЧТО ПОЯВЛЯЛИСЬ ПРИ НАВЕДЕНИИ КУРСОРА В ПРАВО!!! (обращение к пользователям: если у кого осталась старая версия приложения, где есть закладки при наведении в право, поделитесь плиз) Кто найдет похожее приложение но, с боковой панелью закладками отпишитесь в комментарии!
