Lucas Tonin		 Still works, gets the job done, only thing is that sometimes the tooltip keep showing after moving the pointer away and the external url icon is broken (just shows a square )
2020-12-31 Anonymous Would be nice if we could customize the font in which the link is shown. The current font I do not like.

Ferenc Radics		 Nice! I love it!
2019-12-19 Mugen H The extension is quite helpful. However, in my experience with it, it frequently gets stuck somewhere on the screen blocking that portion of the UI. Also, once it gets stuck on the screen it is very difficult to remove it. I wish there was a dedicated bar at the top of chrome or bottom of Chrome which could become invisible as soon as the mouse is removed from the link. Currently, it is very annoying because of the way it gets stuck.

Dougal Merchant		 This extension does exactly what I need it to do and that is highlight high level domains of a link to prevent possible spoofing on web pages. A great product! Thank you very much.

Aaron Brand		 Chrome URL preview became buggy on my extended monitor. I didn't realise how much I relied on the preview until it wasn't there. But this little extension has returned it reliably on both monitors with the added bonus of having the display in my line of sight, as well as the domain highlighted (in choice of custom colour). You just made my day!

Alec Brown		 Does what it says which is perfectly fine but wondering if you couldn't add a feature to indicate if the link has been followed too? The reason I'm looking for this function is that links originate now from many things other than basic text and thusly have no indication of A) Being a link to follow and B) Indicating if that link has been followed already or not.
