Extension summary

This extension adds the attribute "rel=noreferrer" to any link in Feedly right before the it gets clicked. Because of this attribute the link will open in a new chrome process instead of using the same process as the Feedly tab and share its resources.

This means that you should not experience any hangs or freezes in Feedly. If Feedly or one of the opened pages are crashing, it won't let crash all the other tabs.

User reviews

It does what Feedly should have done. Doesn't seem to use many resources either
