Where is the old one with all the products? Why would you break something that worked?

Pros:

nothing

Cons:

everything

As with most of the other complains, I want my old grid of new product screenshots back. It made it really quick for me to quickly see if there was anything of interest for me, every time I opened a tab. Now I have to scroll down a list . I'm too busy hustlin' to be scrollin'

Pros:

It was once great

Cons:

Bring my full-screen grid of new product screenshots back

I am curious to know why it would need to access my browsing history?

unfortunately this is a limitation in Chrome/Firefox. To replace one's new tab, the browser requires we ask for those permissions.
Hi Ryan, seems like an interesting extension! Congrats to everyone who worked on it. From some experience with Chrome/Firefox you should be able to get this permission removed :) It used to ask for this for .

appreciate the tip. We'll investigate! cc
You're welcome, quite a few would bring it up so we looked into it. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, Thomas. :)

Thanks for the tip, we'll look into it!
Great idea, next stage of our internet is all about togetherness, glad that product hunt is listening to the echo of this need
Would be fine if it wasn't trying to serve two masters. All I want is to be able to see screenies of new products. It pains me deeply that this replaced the tab I loved for years.
Ditto. Really bummed.
I like the concept but I must say I miss the grid layout with screenshots in the previous iteration of the extension. That was by far my most used extension. Also I had been reporting bugs etc on the old version for ages that were never addressed...
Same. I've been hoping for a while that they'd update it, but not to this. I didn't ask for this :(
And of course it works nicely with the Brave browser :)

I dig this. Excited at the speed boost and the ability to share what I'm working on.

Pros:

I like the collaborative aspect, but my favorite part is that it loads so much faster than the old PH new tab page!

Cons:

Images for the products are smaller - makes it more difficult to make first impressions

Listen to your users and move to the old layout ASAP

Pros:

nothing

Cons:

I want old layout.

I prefer the previous version

Pros:

Cool looks

Cons:

- I miss the img preview of the featured products - Having a single column instead of 3 columns is more time consuming to see all products

Thanks for the input, Antonio. 🙏🏼 This feedback has come up from others. Change is always tricky and the lack of product density was certainly one of the risks in this update. We're doing roadmap planning early next week so please standby for updates! 😊
