Description

Elegant new tab browser extension that makes you smart(er) and lets you save and manage your bookmarks easily. Super-fast search included. A Cognitive Bias, Mental Model or Dark Pattern explained every time you open a new tab to help improve your decision-making process. Cognitive Biases Based on the Cognitive Bias Codex print from DesignHacks. We researched and added definitions for each bias. Mental Models A curated list of over 300 mental models from various books and sources to help you make better decisions. Dark Patterns Based on 'Dark Patterns at Scale: Findings from a Crawl of 11K Shopping Websites'. An ever-growing list of patterns designed to make you buy stuff. The goal of this extension is to enable you to develop your critical thinking skills; you should be able to identify more biases in yourself and maybe even learn how to correct them.

The flash white blank page before it load is the most annoying thing... please solve it

It's great. But it's slow. When I have many tabs open it takes up to 20 seconds to load the new tab, it's not my computer. I think it makes the overall browser slower.
