2 Extended Recommendations

Let’s start with an extension for my own use:

2.1 AdGuard/uBlock

The extension to de-advertising, which originally used something called AdBlock, the AD buster, changed to these two.

2.2 better – onetab

Onetab does a good job, but its UI is worse than better OneTab… This extension is used to label management, is one of the most common function, need to close the browser, but now opened a number of labels, want to be in the next time you open a browser restore these tags, but don’t want to add to favorites one, because no necessary and most of them are one-time use, better – onetab will come in handy at this time, Click Extend to store all labels.

chrome://extensions/shortcuts
Copy the code

Add shortcut keys.

2.3 Dark Reader

This, see the name to know, dark mode, support one key switch, support different sites, also support brightness, contrast adjustment, very practical, also recommended to add shortcut keys.

2.4 Extensions Manager

Extension manager, you can manage all the extensions, one button on/off, but also support different environments under the rapid switch extension, common scenarios are general browsing using the default configuration, and then development environment using another set of extensions, switching is very simple, first in the Settings to add.

2.5 Imagus

This extension is mainly used for preview images. Hover over the image to enlarge the preview image, and you can also zoom and rotate the temporary preview image.

2.6 Infinity Pro

A very nice new TAB extension, it is recommended to register an account to open Pro function, after opening Pro can support the creation of folders, can also back up data to the cloud, and then switch the browser can restore data with one click.

2.7 Minimal Scrollbar

Minimize the scroll bar, this is not much to say, compare the changes after installing the extension yourself.

2.8 Similar Sites

You can find similar sites, such as Github, StackOverflow, Blog Park, etc. when you open CSDN.

2.9 Tampermonkey

This one is famous, the Oilmonkey. There’s a similar one called the Violent monkey. The Greasy Monkey extension is mainly used to manage scripts, that is, installing the extension doesn’t do anything, you need to install scripts, so I recommend this site: Greasy Fork. Specific not to say, some mysteries need to explore after all.

2.10 Vimuim

The final extension is a combination of Vim and Chromium, in other words, integrating Vim operations into the browser. For example, HJKL is the most common VIM operation, corresponding to the page scroll, respectively is left/down/up/right, f is the page jump function, such as a page before pressing F:

g : https://www......
Copy the code

The g before the colon indicates the keyword and the search keyword after it

%s
Copy the code

Instead, and then in the search box input keyword + space + characters can use the keyword corresponding to the search engine into the search. Here is a demonstration of the method of adding a search engine, using Github as an example, open Github random search 123:

3 the last

Mainstream Chrome is already powerful, and with these experimental features and recommended extensions, hopefully you’ll have a more comfortable environment to surf the Web.
