en About the "Close Timeout", keep this in mind: the extension asks you to enter a "close timeout" you must enter it in a specific format, which is the millisecond format. and make sure to know that ( 1 second ) equals ( 1000 milliseconds ). so if you want it to be a "3 seconds close timeout", you need to type ( 3000 ) in the 'close timeout' space.

en Great work! Does what it says. I finally could remove the Zoom Auto Close Extension and replace it with Tabs auto close, since it also handles notion and all other URLs.

en One of the few that actually works, and that lets you customize both the delay and the list of URLs. I added one for Notion, with this regex: https:\/\/(.)*\.notion.so\/(.)* Note that the delay is in milliseconds, so 3000 is 3 seconds. The UI could be a little more slick, but it's got the functionality I need!

en For some reason, the extension doesn't work when first opening a page that has a matching rule. But when I refresh the page, it does get closed after the specified interval elapses. This bug essentially defeats the whole purpose of having this extension. My config: MacOS 14 (on MacbookPro M2), Chrome 122. I'm trying to close those zoom meeting pages (I've set up the rule as per the 2nd screenshot).

en Mostly works as advertised. Bug: Regex "https:\/\/www.notion.so\/native\/(.)*deepLinkOpenNewTab=true(.)*" does not match "https://www.notion.so/native/January-2024-c36fd50e55?deepLinkOpenNewTab=true", but it should. Also, I had to restart MS Edge to get the extension working. Chrome did not require a restart. At the very least, maybe tell users to restart the browser after installing, if the extension isn't working. Last, should document that the timeout is in milliseconds.
