by Noober, 4 жилийн өмнөThe only app which can replace the background of New tab without modifying .css. This has been an annoying problem for millions of users for about 5 years. On Reddit there are huge pieces of code which advanced users have to put in a special folder in their Explorer and they have to modify program files and they need to have some patience to copy-paste all the code in the right placeswithout re-trying a couple times. This extension finally realized this in a couple clicks. Theere is one problem left, however, your thumbnail icons are going to change their positions and the thumbnails are going to to be googled and re-connected to their links, i.e. this extension does not create thumbnails for sites. All right, another half an hour of work. Look, Firefox devs, I have to go through this torture because the browser doesn't allow its users to change the background of New tab. So, i have had to search for this extension since winter since I switched to a dark theme in Firefox to save my eyes with the dry eye syndrome (and this means they are reeeeally sensitive to light, and I feel sand on their surface when my screen is too bright). And now the other surprise from Firefox devs - when you create a new tab in Firefox, it flashes really bright in white. This leaves my eyes shocked. And to add oil to fire I have 1 hour until I have to wake up to work. You see? I have got insomnia, but i am so frustrated that I decided to waste my cyrcadian rhytms on criticizing and begging you! This should finally be present in Firefox by default. So many users need dark background nowadays. White is the colour of pain.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Lumidaub, 9 сарын өмнөPlacing tiles can be a bit finicky at times and the add-on doesn't always auto-generate thumbnails from the page but other than that does exactly what it's mean to which is simply provide a very handy new tab with my most visited pages and without any unnecessary nonsense (like daily quotes or the weather).
