Reviews of reload:
Reload is a good extension overall (and also its companion Stop), does what it's supposed to. HOWEVER the button is almost IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE when the browser uses a dark or black theme. PLEASE add a white variant so this extension becomes usable. This issue had already been reported in 2020 for its sister extension Stop: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stop/kkeehnmfddjhlojogndpeaklfhaokkbn/support . Meanwhile, here's an alternative: "My Reload Button", with a very visible, however even uglier, orange “＞” as its button icon: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/my-reload-button/enljbahijigkmdlagadnkokcjgnkainm So far, I couldn't find any other simple reload/refresh extensions for Chrome/Chromium-based browsers.
I think the reload icon should be bit bigger, maybe 20% bigger to look like chrome default reload button.
Wonderful
