User reviews

This extension works great, but links containing UTM are stored in the history. Would it be possible to change/remove said links to get rid of UTM?

Thank you so much! It's always a pain to remove those before sharing links.

It doesn't work. It corrects url just after the link is loaded and nothing happens until you refresh the webpage. :(
