Júnior Silva 2022-02-23 thanks!! i hate chrome forcing google home page
Leif Å. 2022-01-17 It seems to work perfectly so far.
M S 2022-01-12 excellent, google and Microsoft are tyran They impose on the user by force first advert page, thank you for fight with this terror ;)
Theo Carney 2021-11-22 I'm trying to use this to set my new tab page to the OneTab extension home page: chrome-extension://##############/onetab.html When I hit cmd + t to open a new tab, it OneTab gets blocked: "############### is blocked This page has been blocked by Chrome ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT" I can get the page to load properly if I focus on the address bar and hit enter. Refresh button doesn't work. Maybe chrome won't allow one extension to open another, or I need to reconfigure a security setting? Either way pretty effing annoying that they removed the native functionality to customize your new tab smdh. Does anyone know how to fix this? I don't wanna be unfair and give a low review bc it seems like this is Chrome/Google being an @$$ about people getting a say in how they browse the web. But since I was hoping for this extension to solve this problem can't really give more than 3 stars.
Aaron Stevens 2021-11-20 Does as described, however there's a split-second white flash when opening a new tab and it's very jarring, especially when my custom page is dark themed. The white flash is probably the redirect process, is there any way of changing the colour of this?
