Martijn Ooms (ID: 0000001ed73a3c0f) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 12/23/2021 Symbaloo is superfijn, maar deze extensie dwingt je naar de zoekpagina. Dat is niet de kracht of functie van symbaloo. Zonde.

gavin hunt (ID: 0000007e011f67f2) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/20/2021 Useless, doesn't link to your 'webmix' better off rolling your own index.html with css grid of images with links. im sure theres a template out there. save yourself the hassle of trying to figure this out

Noah Young (ID: 000000a01489cf56) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/22/2020 I thought this extension was to have a webmix as a new tab page. But all I see is Symbaloo search. Am I doing something wrong?
