Review summary

Users praise FastForward for quickly skipping intermediary/ad‑link wait pages and for being an effective, well‑liked bypass tool. However multiple reviews report the project is discontinued and that the extension can be broken or unreliable (including Google Images redirect problems). Reviewers note the nature of bypass tools makes them fragile over time, so functionality may be inconsistent.

Pros

Quickly skips intermediary/wait pages and redirects to the target site (bypasses ad‑link/wait pages).
Effectively bypasses adfly‑type redirects (users report it removes waiting/extra pages).
Well‑regarded by some users — several reviews praise it highly or call it one of the best add‑ons.

Cons

Development appears to have ceased / the project is discontinued, which alarms multiple users.
Broken or unreliable for some users — several report it doesn’t work or fails to reach the target page.
Causes navigation problems for some scenarios (notably Google Image search redirection/"Redirect Notice" blocking access).
Inherently fragile: bypassing ad/redirect services is a "cat‑and‑mouse" task, so reliability can degrade over time.

It works quietly in the background and makes browsing faster and smoother. Perfect for anyone who clicks links often and hates wasting time on unnecessary redirects.
