I once used TGS, but recently, version 7.1.8 was found to contain malicious code, and was promptly removed from the Chrome Web store. What is it, how do we get it back?
What is TGS?
TGS was an extension that would freeze tabs that you weren't using, so that you would save RAM, but wouldn't lose your tab. It was very useful.
Why was it removed?
The new maintainer of TGS added malicious code to it.
How do I get it back?
download TGS here: https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/releases/download/v7.1.6/tgs-7.1.6.zip
extract it to a folder
go to chrome://extensions
turn on Developer Mode [on Chrome it's on the top right, edge bottom left]
click on load unpacked
navigate to the folder where the extracted fikes are.
Done! For more info see: URGENT: SECURITY: New maintainer is probably malicious · Issue #1263 · greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender · GitHub
That's all pepes!
screw the guy who loaded malware onto the service!
when I said "fikes" i meant "files"
