Ross Guldenbrein (ID: 000000e99ce24036) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/21/2021 It feels like home, but.... I've used TBHPE for ages and I really like it! However, I can currently only give it 4/5 stars. This is because I use the 'Best Homepage Ever - New Tab Quick Launch' with Chrome, and it only seems to work about 75% of the time! The other 25% of the time, the new tab extension somehow turns itself off, and I have to go back into my browser's extensions and switch it back ON. And, I can't find anywhere, or any person, to help me fix this annoying problem!
