My Desktop Tab

My Desktop Tab replaces your browser's new tab page with a simple, fully customizable dashboard. Features: • Quick links — create your own shortcuts with an icon (automatic favicon, uploaded image, or URL) and an optional subtitle; rename them right on their tile from the right-click menu. • Videos — add a YouTube, Vimeo or Streamable video, or a video file (.mp4, .webm, .mov, .mkv…), just like a link: it is recognized automatically, shows as a thumbnail with the site's logo and plays in a built-in player (full screen available) without leaving the page; a button opens it on its original site. Playback resumes where you left off, even after closing the tab. • Bookmarks — browse your personal bookmarks bar directly, including subfolders, with a choice of display (tiles or list). • Folders — organize your quick links AND bookmarks together in folders, each with its own custom icon and a "Back" tile to navigate up easily. The "Back" tile can be hidden (Settings › Other), the breadcrumb then taking over; on phones, it becomes a small ← button at the top left. • Column layout — several adjustable columns, each displayable as tiles or a list, fixed or automatic width; right-click in a column to add a link or folder straight into it. • Per-folder settings — customize the wallpaper and layout individually for the home page or any folder; a folder without custom settings automatically inherits its parent folder's, or the home page's in one click. • Reordering — drag and drop your tiles to change their order, including across columns. • Custom icons — automatic favicon (kept locally so it shows up offline), an image uploaded from your computer, or an image URL (downloaded and kept locally); copy and paste an icon, uploaded or favicon, from one tile to another from the right-click menu, within the same tab. • Colors — system color (folders, active elements...), text color, clock color, tile and tile-hover colors, breadcrumb colors and search bar colors (background, transparency and text), all independently customizable. • Display — tile width and height, grid width, tile title hideable in "Tiles" view: everything is adjustable in settings. The page also adapts to small windows, tablets and phones: columns wrap, the top bar stacks and a ☰ menu gathers search and actions. • Clock — 12-hour or 24-hour time display, adjustable size and color, can be toggled on/off. • Wallpaper — solid color, custom gradient, or an image uploaded from your computer, with a choice of fit mode (cover, contain, tile, or center). • Tab title — customize the title shown on the browser tab, instead of "New Tab". • Multilingual — French, English, Italian, Spanish, German, Portuguese and Dutch; the language automatically follows your browser's (English if it isn't supported), or can be chosen in the settings. • Multi-browser — My Desktop Tab is available on Firefox, Chrome, Edge and Opera. Your links, folders, settings and custom icons transfer identically when you export your configuration from one browser and import it into another (only pinned native bookmarks will need to be re-pinned, since their identifier is specific to each browser's own bookmarks store). • Export / Import — back up your configuration to a file, favicons included, to restore or transfer it easily (the file is validated on re-import to prevent corrupted data). • Search — instantly find a link, folder, or bookmark by title, URL, or keyword, without leaving the page. • Keywords — tag your links and folders, then manage all your keywords (rename, delete) from a dedicated panel. • Modules — from the "Modules" tab of the settings, enable, disable and configure each module (clock, bookmarks, breadcrumb, feeds, search bar, protected folders); the other items of the top bar keep their place when a module is hidden. • Feeds (RSS/Atom) — subscribe to XML feeds and follow their new articles in a discreet panel at the bottom of the screen (position, width, height, colors and image size are customizable), with a per-subscription importance score and no duplicates across feeds. Past articles are kept, up to 250 per feed. An expanded view, opened from the Feeds icon in the toolbar, shows the articles in three panes: sources (sortable alphabetically and/or by importance), a list you can filter by title, and a reading pane (image, summary). Each article is marked as new, previewed or opened; keep your favorites with one click on the star, and filter by favorites, new, previewed or opened articles, across one or several feeds. It is also where you add, edit, delete or refresh your subscriptions. • Protected folders — encrypt a folder and all its contents with a password (AES-256-GCM, fully local) via the dedicated lock icon; unlocking only applies to the current tab, and the folder becomes invisible again in any new tab. • Pinned folder — pin a folder (dedicated toolbar icon, shown while you're inside a folder) so it opens directly on every new tab instead of the home page; only one folder can be pinned at a time, and unpinning it with one click returns you to the home page. A pinned protected folder still opens to the home page while it remains locked. Privacy: All data (links, folders, settings, images, feed subscriptions) is stored only locally in your browser (browser.storage.local or chrome.storage.local). No data is collected, transmitted, or shared with any external server. The only network requests made by the extension are downloading an icon image when you provide its URL yourself, fetching the favicon of the sites you add to your page (to display it and keep it locally), and periodically refreshing the content of the XML feeds you choose to subscribe to — always for sites you chose yourself. For videos, the extension reads their title and thumbnail from the site concerned (YouTube, Vimeo, Streamable) and only loads their player when you start them.
