Does not work. I selected 5 websites to whitelist (subdomains as well) and selected the option to protect whitelisted cookies but every time I close Chrome and reopen it, the whitelisted cookies have been deleted and I have to sign in again to all of the websites. I uninstalled the extension. "Cookie Keeper" used to work great but it no longer exists as an extension so I have to keep looking for something similar.

Me encanta esta extensión. Es fácil de usar, muy fácil. Seleccionas un par de características entendibles por cualquier usuario 🤔 creo, y ya está, la extensión se encarga del resto 👍 ¡Cómo tiene que ser! 😊🤣

Clunky, not clear where to go or what to do, but even after setting a long list of whitelisted/protected apps, it simply didn't delete unwanted cookies. Ever. Even when specifically directing it to, and a popup saying "500 cookies removed" or whatever, still have thousands using gigabytes of space I had to remove manually.
