No Redirect

Some websites change the links on their pages to "redirect url". This sucks.

For example: a link to www.google.com in Slack is like "https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https://www.google.com".

This means when you click on these links, instead of going to the target location, you are actrually visiting "slack-redir.net" server (which is controlled by Slack obviously) and the server will then "redirect" you to the real location.This means if slack server is slow or down, you can't go to the location.

This extension uses Chrome API to intercept the link before the navigation. It will extrack the real url from the "redirect" url and navigate you to the real url directly.
