Version 91
Released Dec 19, 2020 - 162.35 KBWorks with firefox 64.0 and laterThis version stops using HTML5 context menus, which are being removed from Firefox, and uses WebExtension context menus instead. I think they're worse for this particular use case, but what are you gonna do?

Version 88.1
Released Jun 5, 2018 - 153.76 KBWorks with firefox 57.0 and laterThis version reduces the permissions required for New Tab Tools to run. You probably still want it to have the permissions, as they're needed for some functionality, but now you'll be asked for them only when needed. This update only really affects new installs.

Version 84
Released Oct 7, 2017 - 73.52 KBWorks with firefox 55.0a1 and laterThis is the first completely WebExtension version of New Tab Tools. There are a multitude of changes, including the return of the filter for history tiles and some refreshed graphics.
This transition to WebExtensions has taken over six months, but I think now I can start actually making things better instead of merely trying to get back what we had before.
