Reviews of the great suspender:
Absolutely loved it, the best extension. A must have for any Chrome user. Unfortunately, both Chrome and Edge have natively built this feature in both the browsers. Been a user for more than 3 years. Happily uninstalling it now. Had a great time.
This version is buggy and hasn't been updated recently. Use the original instead.
I used to love this extension, but it now seems contaminated with viruses / malware. This extension is DIRTY and tries to redirect you to affiliate tracking links when you go to sites like BestBuy, Newegg, and others. This is all so that the creator/author/publisher can make a COMMISSION on whatever you purchase.I would not have even noticed these redirects if I did not have a network-wide ad blocker in my home (PiHole). Very slimy. P.S. A few examples of domains I have seen it redirect to are: flexlinkspro.com, prj11.com, shara.li, and others that I did not care to write down. All of these domains are connected to affiliate marketing networks.
