Tiffany Johns (ID: 00000058da53300e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/19/2023 I've tried dozens of new tab pages, and each one of them had something I didn't like that made me keep searching. StarterTab seems to be very early in its life, but it's already good enough that I'm going to stick with it. The developer seems to be very receptive to feedback and regularly pushes new updates, which is more than can be said for a lot of other new tab extensions. There are some widgets and features I wish it had, but everything I need is already there. It's way more polished than a lot of popular new tab choices, and I'm sure it will only get better.
