Works well
Unfortunately, on Version 62.0.3202.94 (Official Build) Built on Ubuntu , running on Peppermint 8 (64-bit) doesn't actually do anything besides showing its icon. IT just doesn't work. But then... no other similar extension seem to be able to keep the last tab open either, so it must mean chrome/chromium devs have changed smt again
This is the one you're looking for. I've tried others that are clunky - this does what you seek: close the last tab and it instantly spawns a new one, keeping your browser open.
