      Recently I've been coming back to my chrome browsers to find a tab open with the following URL:

      This is happening across all my computers, both linux, windows, and linux VM, so I don't think it's OS-specific malware, but I suspect a rogue chrome extension is opening the tab, because I have chrome synced across all affected devices via my google account.

      I've searched for this particular problem and URL to no avail, so I wondered if there's a way to track back which extension opened the tab, other than by doing a binary search disabling half my extensions at a time (which would be annoying as hell - the tabs only seem to get opened once a day or so).

    2. Good Firefox extensions?

      I just switched over to Firefox from Brave and I'm really liking it so far. Any essential extensions I should get or settings I should tweak?

    3. Most useful Chrome extensions

      What are the most useful Chrome extensions that you have come across? I use this extension called Workona, which has been just amazing at dealing with my obsession with having hundreds of tabs open.
