User reviews
The extension does not work on all pages. For example, it can open YouTube pages in other browsers, however it would fail with Facebook and random pages (such as this one). I'm on Chrome 49 for Mac, fully compatible with this version (updated in 2015, whereas Chrome 49 is from 2016). The developer is not reachable and is not very keen on responding.

This is just incredible to be able to move browsers like that... As a tab hoarder, theres nothing better...
