It was good, but now isn't displaying the page at all in Google Chrome, apart from the banner ads. I've added nothing else to Chrome, it's just stopped working all of its own accord - and you can't contact the company, or Google so far as I can see, in any way that will resolve the issue.

*****MALWARE INFECTED***** I loved this site until it was infected with MALWARE. Developer not responding to emails/Tweets. Malware status can be verified through Sucuri at: https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/protopage.com :(

I guess it is too much to ask that such a great browser addition be free. After a while you get huge banner adds and I am not willing to pay the $2.99 per month to get rid of them. Too bad. Uninstall.

i just started using protopage and i like the site for a landing page, but this plugin for chrome is horrible. There is a popup message that prevents me from doing anything else every time i hit a page that would support an rss feed; and there's NO OPTION TO TURN IT OFF! ... would change this review significantly if I could TURN OFF the messages.

It only works when I hit my home button in chrome. I want it to also be my New Tab page...

Let me know if I'm missing a setting....The little pics next to the news headlines don't line up with the headlines. Ex: CNN shows 5 Headlines, but only 2.5 (yes, 2 and a half...) thumbnails. I want the pic so I get interested in reading the headline it belongs to! I seriously want to give 5 stars and love this extension, so am I just missing something? (Yes, I tried different size font, different combos of settings, unchecking the auto-resize box,etc.) Will gladly change rating if someone can help me make it all match up!

Can't import bookmarks - and I have a lot! Adding them one at a time will take forever so I will continue to use igHome as my main feed page.
