Overview

Automatically focuses new tabs, avoiding issues during session restoration.

! Newly opened tabs automatically focus ! That's all what this extension does. It does not change the behavior of how links are treated in your pages, if you want all links to automatically open in a new tab you'll have to find a way yourself (or another extension in addition to this one). Again.. this extension only *focus* new tabs, it does not open links in new tabs automatically, if you want to open a link in a new tab you can click a link holding CTRL on your keyboard. ChangeLog ========= Version 1.3 (2025-08-22): - More lightweight. - Removed the "storage" permission. - Now works fine in ChromeOS.
