Summary
[CURRENTLY BROKEN WITH NEW SITES, read below] Google / Chrome has changed the way in which per-site permissions are requested (again). I'm currently in my final year of uni and can't spare the time to go in and fix it. Likely ETA for a fix: spring 2020. Sorry.
[from the github readme]
This is a tiny, lean Chrome plugin that can do two things:
- redirect sites of your choosing to an URL you set
- open said URL when you open a new tab.
You can also quickly toggle it by clicking the icon. I wrote it for myself because I needed something like this and what was out there was bloated and/or missed the New Tab replacement functionality. Made it less hacky so I can upload it to the Chrome Web Store and not have to download it from git and load unpacked on every PC I use. Feel free to use / make modifications.
The settings also sync dynamically between devices.
