Chrome plugin for setting a homepage for the incognito mode Always disable autoplay and use theatre mode, even when browsing incognito.
Full summary

This lightweight Chrome extension allows you to specify a homepage for the incognito window, which is not possible with the Chrome browser by default.

Features:

  • Set homepage for the incognito mode.
  • Option to redirect homepage for only the first incognito tab of the window.

The source code for this project is available at: https://github.com/kidoge/incognito-homepage

Incognito mode is great when you want to browse with a clean slate. However, this also means that all websites you visit will have forgotten your preferences.

This extension simply resets YouTube to widescreen (or "Theatre" or "Cinema") mode, and unticks autoplay. It also disables autoplay in Vimeo.

NOTE: in order to work in Incognito mode, remember to check "Allow in incognito" in the extensions tab.
