I used to run a homebrew'd extension to change my new tab page. Chrome makes it so annoying to use a sideloaded extension. Every time you start the browser, and every couple of hours when you open a new tab it will have a big popup warning you that an unsigned extension is running, and give you a big button to remove the extension that fires when you hit space or enter, and a tiny little subtext button to continue using the extension. After the 3rd time accidentally uninstalling the extension because I was typing in a search too quickly and not paying attention, I gave up on using it.
- aardshark 3y agoYou must be able to turn this off, because I've been running many homebrewed extensions for years and never encountered these popups.
- Wowfunhappy 3y agoHuh, I've never seen this. Are you loading extensions via "load unpacked" (which is what I use) or some other method I'm unaware of?
