As of the last few months, the extension stopped working can you update it?
Successfully skips the "Redirect Notice" page from address bar I'm Feeling Lucky searches, HOWEVER for some reason this also breaks clicking on all links in Reddit email (https://click.redditmail.com/CL0/[reddit url]) - just makes them redirect to the home page instead of to the given URL.
It works but when I right click URLs in Google, the copy/paste URL still has the redirect. Use URL Tracking Stripper & Redirect Skipper instead.
