Doesn't work at all. Clicking the button accomplishes nothing.

That depends on which type of page you are on. If you are on an overview page for example, this extension won’t be able to redirect. Profile pages on the other hand are supported and should work fine – especially with the detection improvements that landed in 0.3.0. The most recent 0.4.0 version also added support to redirect individual posts. If you are still having issues, please file a bug over at https://github.com/bramus/mastodon-redirector/issues so that I can look into it.

Sometimes goes to the wrong account, but if I go back a page and try again, it gets it right. As Sushubh said, it would be wonderful if it worked on individual posts, too.

Improvements to fetching the username were made in version 0.3.0. Redirecting of posts also works as of 0.4.0. If you find a bug, please file one over at https://github.com/bramus/mastodon-redirector/issues

Too cumbersome. Demands user to find the extension in the menu and click on it to redirect. It's easier to copy/paste at your own server...

You can choose to pin the extension’s icon to more easily access it. Furthermore, as noted in the readme, you can use the Alt+Shift+M / Option+Shift+M shortcut to invoke the redirect. Finally, this extension modifies the modals Mastodon shows on other instances. When wanting to follow/favorite/boost, a button with a direct link to your Mastodon instance will be injected into the markup. Plenty of options. A pity you didn’t notice them.

Please update this extension to redirect post links as well. There is a bookmarklet out there that offers this functionality. homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/imurray2/code/mastodon.html. Thanks for this!
