LevelStatue8C (ID: 000000ee1c4d78ab) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/07/2021 Its pretty good but not sure why they made the messages so creepy.

Lear Shachar (ID: 00000010b6fac4f1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/08/2020 Went over about a bunch of extentions that did the same thing, this one takes the cake. Clean, crisp, and overall just really nice. Its cool how it gets your icons for your pages on the bottom. I would be happy if i could enable only dark background pictures, as well as darker font and search bar. The only thing thats missing for this to be perfect for me is a way to connect my bookmark folders in here!
