Link to Text Fragment:

This is a very underrated Chrome Extensions offered by Google itself. It works similar to Google Featured Snippets. When you search any query on Google you will find an article with a short explanation or tabular form or an image with a description. When you simply open an article under featured snippets Google highlights the text automatically. So this extension does exactly the same thing it allows users to easily create a special link to currently selected text on a page via the context menu. When opening such a special link, a compatible browser will scroll the selected text into view and highlight it.

Fready:

A special Chrome Extension for a person like me who reads a lot of articles on the Internet. This Extension allows users to spend less time reading articles. It works just like your finger when you read a physical book which is possible because of its scientifically designed word pacer that stimulates the ideal eye movement. It allows you to customize your reading experience by allowing us to set reading speed, pacer color, etc. Apart from this, it slows down on hard, long, rare, and scientific words that ensure you stay laser-focused. It also scrolls automatically when you reach the bottom of the page, allowing you to get fully immersed in the text. Here is a short video guide from the developer of this extension.

I don't care about cookies:

From the name itself, you have been got an idea about what this Chrome extension does. It blocks the cookies that you get on every goddamn website you visit on the internet. Most people accept cookies without even reading their terms and conditions. After that, they show you targeted banner ads when you go to another website. This is the biggest flaw amongst Internet users and to overcome this flow this extension is used where it removes cookie warnings from almost all websites. To know more refer to its official Chrome Extension.

Buster- Captcha solver: 

This Extension simply just saves our time to solve captcha questions for us. Buster is a browser extension that helps you to solve difficult captchas by completing reCAPTCHA audio challenges using speech recognition. The challenges are solved by clicking on the extension button at the bottom of the reCAPTCHA widget. According to the developer "It is not guaranteed that challenges are always solved, the limitations of the technology need to be considered."Here is how the captcha looks.

My Opinions:

Chrome Extensions are the thing we use to make our smooth web experience It permits us to do any assignment without hardly lifting a finger. Presently a significant number of them are asking why chrome doesn't incorporate into its own application. The fundamental purpose for this is that Software/application will turn out to be heavy and chrome is known for its significant UI and Resource saver.

Some of the extensions are also being used by me from the above list. If you know of any good Chrome Extension from Chrome Web Store, then do let me know in the comments section below. Lastly, turn on the notification so that you get some valuable knowledge.
