What is One Tab Only?
The 'One Tab Only' is a Chrome extension targeted at giving users clarity and organization while they browse. Upon changing tab URLs, the extension checks if the new URL matches with a predefined domain URL. If a match is found, the extension opens the URL in the pre-existing tab with the same domain, closing the original source tab. Users can define the domain URL via the extension options link. Additionally, the extension offers notifications which can be disabled at the user's discretion.
