- Rated 4 out of 5by Denis, 3 years agoDoes exactly what is says. No excessive permissions, no bs.
Only one thing - it desperately needs a feature to get favicons for stored bookmark's domain.Developer response
posted 3 years agoFor small favicons in lists - you need to enable google service permission in Privacy settings.
For thumbnails-type favicons - not gonna happe as I explained many times in Github issues. Main reason is: privacy (a 3rd party service would read your ip and the urls from your bookmarks) and firefox extension does not allow to get favicons directly. - Rated 4 out of 5by jasonix, 4 years agoDoes the job and is customizable, but it loads a bit slow.
Edit: I have to be more specific, because "a bit slow" may lead to some confusion. I have had 24 top sites on my Top Sites since now. I know exactly where everything is, so when I open a new tab my cursor is where I want to before it loads. I now have 28 bookmarks (7x4 grid) and a docked folder of 8 bookmarks. It takes less than a second to load, but enough to be noticeable when I'm in a hurry.Developer response
posted 4 years agoThe only reason it would be slow is when you have too many bookmarks (e.g. >200). But that is firefoxe's fault as its API to fetch bookmarks gets proportionally slower the more bookmarks you have. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16799634, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15166984, 4 years agoUnless you can code CSS there is not much customization for the average user. I'd just like the ability to set tile colours individually and perhaps adjust corner roundedness. I'm sure others can do these things which is why I'm giving it full marks.

posted 4 years agoHi, thank you for your review. If you'd like me to help you with this, please create a ticket in github: https://github.com/perfect-things/perfect-home/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by BeWog, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by tseren, 4 years agoExactly what is says on the tin. You need to chose a location (such as the Bookmarks Toolbar, Bookmarks Menu, or any folder you created) from which the extension will read the bookmarks rather than cherry-picking certain ones. Easy work-around: create a folder with duplicates of only the desired bookmarks. This extension is a little gem hidden in the endless list of search results. Slick, easy to customize, no fuss, and regularly updated. Perfect, indeed.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13610690, 4 years agoi was hoping since really long time for such add-on. Thanks a lot :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Eien, 4 years agoSimple, fast, highly customizable, privacy conscious, helpfull and responsive developper...
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ubosta, 4 years agoReally nice!
Would be great to get following features:
- Search bar at top (alternate option to search icon)
- Search when you type (alternate option without icon and search bar)
- Auto generate thumbnails (optional setting)
- Add dynamic wallpaper (Like Bing Daily Wallpaper, with choice of multiple sources)
- Cut and resize of manually added thumbnails
This would make it outstanding. Still going with it right now and loving it! Thank you.Developer response

Would you mind adding an issue here: https://github.com/perfect-things/perfect-home/issues with the things you mentioned? We can discuss them there in detail. - Rated 5 out of 5by Arthur Estevam, 4 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14259542, 4 years agoI found it for a long time and almost missed it. It seems that there are some keywords missing in the introduction, such as: bookmarks, speed dial, start bookmark home.
Some feature request:
- Custom animation time, animation time is too long for me.
- Remember the folder location.
- Some custom CSS are added by default:
.icon- btn.btn -back {
width: 100%;
text-align: left;
height: 50px;
background: #0000003d;
}
.folder {
overflow: hidden;

Would you mind adding an issue here: https://github.com/perfect-things/perfect-home/issues with the things you mentioned? I'd need some more info on them :-) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12141553, 4 years agoTurns out you don't need access to all data on all tabs to create bookmarks page.
Turns out you don't need "groups" since we have those "folders" old timers use.
When "themes" feature gets added this will be the shit. - Rated 5 out of 5by iudex, 4 years agoPERFECT. The name says it all.
edit: actually, I (don't) want to nitpick, but if the tab name could be just "New Tab" I'd appreciate it.
disclaimer: I tried to just change the index.html myself, however firefox removed the extension..Developer response
posted 4 years agoThanks for the review. Would you mind adding the feature request in github issues of the project? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16107207, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefoss, 5 years agoWorks great.
Very useful.
Open source.
No dangerous permissions. - Rated 5 out of 5by cengels, 5 years agoA great lightweight new-tab extension, plus the extension's developer is very open to user feedback on its github page. Whether it's a feature request or a discovered bug, the developer always responds quickly and conscientiously. For my purposes, this is the best new-tab page I've ever used.
