Pinned Tab for Messenger is a handy Chrome extension designed to streamline how you access Facebook Messenger in your browser. With a simple keyboard shortcut (Alt + Shift + M) or a button click, the extension either opens a pinned tab for Messenger or brings you back to your previous tab.

This add-on overcomes limitations from previous panel-style extensions by leveraging pinned tabs, offering consistent functionality and quick navigation. Users can now customize the keyboard shortcut to best suit their workflow. Note that this extension is an independent tool and not affiliated with Messenger or Meta products.

I was using this all the time but for some reason a few days ago it stopped working. It only says "This content is currently unavailable". This was really useful i wish the problem will be fixed.

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
