2024-12-10 Ben Would be a good extension, but it breaks some things in Google Sheets; namely: 1) Find and Replace doesn't work (the dialog just won't appear) and 2) some charts are missing. After I disable this extension, everything works again
2024-11-17 Varniit ClearURLs is a very useful and important addon to have it as it cleans tracking URLs and garbage elements from URL while preserving the real URL, thus privacy. But I request Dev to update it for 2025 as this isn't updated since 2022. This isn't chrome but MS edge store, so please.
2024-10-15 Michael This extension breaks the functionality of some websites. For example, when the extension is active, I cannot add an item on eBay to the watchlist. And when I deactivate extension - everything works as it should.
2024-07-15 Administrator 少给一颗星以示鼓励 这个扩展在国内需要配置才好用,给国内新手用户指条路: github.com/lifegpc/clearUrls
2024-07-08 Chris This is a great extension, except that one HUGE missing feature makes it a lot of work to use. It has no whitelisting capability so that you can have it disable itself for specified websites. Some pages do not load correctly when this is enabled. For instance if you're getting a Reddit digest via email and you click any particular post to see, the extension removes all of the information needed for it to take you to the story and you're instead just taken to your main feed. Also, if I try opening any ebook in Google Play Books, it spins forever unless I turn this off. There are others as well. So I'm constantly having to click this icon and turn it off, but only after having wasted time trying to open something and having it fail because I've forgotten nearly every time that this has to be manually disabled first and then re-enabled afterward. If it had a simple whitelisting feature, I'd be able to add these exceptions once and everything would just work and save lots of time.
2024-05-26 Kyro Very useful, but it affects certain features of some websites. Since it doesn't have a whitelist function, I have to temporarily disable the extension, quite inconvenient...
2024-05-06 jinan 很有用。但是规则直接禁用了bing的搜索建议。
2024-04-07 Xie excellent, why not update?
2024-01-21 Looney 有屁用,淘宝的 SPM 数据根本去不掉,该有的照样有。
