André Strecker (ID: 000000961b9cd046) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/09/2021 Neu: Leider wird das Menü nicht mehr angezeigt. Daher nutzlos. Habe bereits den Entwickler angeschrieben, aber er antwortet nicht. Tote, defekte Erweiterung. Schade, war mal gut. Alte Bewertung: Bringt alle von mir benötigten Funktionen zum "Zurückstellen" von Tabs. Neben der Funktion, sind mir die Berechtigungen wichtig. Die sind bei dieser Erweiterung m.E. nach völlig angemessen. Sie sind: "Browserverlauf lesen" und "Benachrichtigungen einblenden". Sehr gut.
