    I'm currently looking for a start page and this one is very promising. i love the use of favicons and how customisable the capsules are.

    Not usable for me in its current state but i'll save it to check the progress later. The most important feature for me is a grid layout with a cutomisable number of columns and rows for the capsule view. I'm not a fan of dynamic layouts. A simple fixed layout that i can set the way i want is plenty enough. ( if i put a capsule somwhere on the grid, it should only move if i replace it with another one without affecting the position of the other capsules)

    Other important feature is auto dark/light mode background depending on what is currently set systemwise.

    Also important, the possibility to chose a custom icon for the capsule if for some reason the add-on can't fetch the website favicon.

    Thank for sharing and keep up the good work.

    Hey!

    Thanks for your review. The auto dark/light mode feature is definitely in the works! I also love your idea of choosing a custom icon for bookmarks and have added it to my roadmap.

    I get that not everyone might be a fan of the dynamic layouts like the capsule view. Your suggestion of a grid layout sounds like a solid idea to address that. It'll take some rethinking and might take a bit of time to implement, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for the idea, and I hope you'll give the extension another try in the future. :)

    Love the the idea and implementation so far! But changing the size of the box for each book is a crucial feature to add.

    Hey! The extension got a complete redesign in the last couple of months, so I would be really happy if you would give it a go and let me know what do you think about all the changes that occured. For starters - it's way more customizable now :)
