I've been using Clipix since it first came out, 10+ years ago. I was so excited when I found it. I've made many, many boards and have saved hundreds, thousands of bookmarks. I'm disappointed because last year they made changes that weren't needed, that made the extension worse, than better. Why change something that isn't broken? 1) They removed the number of clips you have in a board. 2) They changed the multiple choice of moving or deleting clips. Now you can only do them, one by one. Very time consuming. 3) You can't right click on the Clip and open the clip to a new tab, that sent you to the site. Now you have to open the clip and then right click to go to the site. Again time consuming. 4) You can't scroll down easily to the bottom of each board. The clips freeze and you have to move slowly, a few rows at a time. That's very frustrating for me, because I have ton of clips saved in each board and I can't count how many, because the number is gone and it takes forever to go to the bottom. Sometimes it freezes and I can't go to the bottom. 5) If I try moving a clip to a new board, it will take me back up to the beginning after I move it, so it's impossible for me to move the clips from one board to another, to make things easier for me, after the changes. Please fix these glitches and go back to the way you were. If these glitches are fixed it's 5 stars from me. If not, I'll give them 3 stars. The most important issue is that they've given me anxiety, that one day they may disappear, and with the extension all my bookmarks. I don't like changes, especially unescessary ones. I tried contacting them, but didn't receive a reply.
