M. J. Lee (ID: 00000068d5213108) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/02/2023 I REALLY dislike that it replaces the page I see when opening a new tab. This is so inconvenient that I have now disabled the iGive button (a Chrome extension). Then when I am shopping online I forget to turn it on so many purchases that could be supporting my cause are not. Please change this!
