| 2024-02-19 |  | | en | As of now (fall 2024), it appears that this Chrome Extension is no longer needed. You can now disable overscroll navigation on Chromebooks by going to the Accessibility settings of the Chromebook and deselecting "Use a swipe gesture to navigate between pages". Thank you for the stop-gap solution in the meantime! |
