A selection of essential Chromium/Chrome extensions.
Main use case: to get a vanilla chromium profile into a useable
state. For example, as part of disaster recovery or when
initializing a fresh $HOME.
Generated with chromium-extensions.py.
Chromium doesn't allow to fully automate the installation of extensions, as of 2017-06. The next best thing is a semi-automatic procedure, like this:
- make sure that Chromium isn't running
- execute
chromium-browser $(cut -f1 -d, extension.csv | tail -n +1) - Click on all 'Add to chrome' buttons in all tabs
A well-known alternative to AdBlock Plus is the uBlock Origin. In contrast to AdBlock Plus, it was first released for Chrome and then ported to Firefox. With AdBlock Plus it was the other way around.
