Marek Nos 2025-03-05: Used it for very long time but recently (maybe over a year already) it works only on second drag.
Goo Gle 2024-02-10: This is a very useful tool and seems 'almost' perfect for me, but it seems there arised a bug that sometimes temporarily drag and drop doesn't work. That is, select some text and drag and drop for search, there's no response, but drag and drop again, then it works. This problem really is really annoying me. I hope this issue is fixed soon.

Monica Lee 2022-04-27: 目前為止最省資源的,只需要拖曳功能的可以參考.
Al Hol 2022-01-11: Не работает! Doesn't work!
Simon Cheng 2021-02-06: Occasionally buggy but generally very useful. Sometimes it does conflict with websites that already implement a drag-and-drop UI though, for example web discord.

Anonymous 2019-01-02: firefoxのsuper drag and goに最も近いchrome拡張機能。選択テキストおよびリンクの左右ドラッグで表示タブのフォアとバックグラウンドを任意に。このシンプルな動作が出来るのは実はchromeではこれが唯一。最高に便利だ！

Alexey Adamitsky 2017-08-23: Great productivity addon to Chrome. I needed to search for it sooner. I use similar addon in Firefox and have been missing it Chrome. I have one request please. Can you make an option to switch drag and drop behaviour? I'd prefer drag and drop to right and open unfocused. Thanks in advance.

Оле Оле 2014-01-23: Не хватает настроек как в Yet Another Drag and Go, чтобы при перетаскивании в разных направлениях - открывало разные сайты. А так гуд, работает!
Yaroslav Chygliaev 2014-01-23: Работающая замена сломавшемуся в 32 версии Хрома расширению Yet Another Drag and Go.
Prateek Shukla 2013-11-18: Take some length for drag to work, not as good as firefox's quickdrag minimal length but nice extension. No option to open tabs in background???
