just opens the current tab link into an Incognito tab
opens new window, does not work on 'this tab'
****ADWARE***DO NOT INSTALL*** Recently I noticed unsolicited popups whenever visiting shopping sites. After a series of elimination rounds, I found that the culprit was this extension. Do NOT install.
This is add ware. Does what it wants but i have add block for a reason.... (hint. the reason i so i don't have to see advertisements at all)
Does not remove the tab from "recently visited" or "recently closed' histories. This is useless.
AVOID - SPAM. Has started injecting ads into the footer of web pages.
TOTALLY, CONFUSED. I AM JUST STRUGGLING HERE.
Does what it says but it could be a lot more useful. 1. It should close the normal tab that it is opening from. 2. If there is a incognito window open, it should add to it rather than opening a new window. 3. It should remove the site from recent history. Currently, it does the easiest step in moving a tab from a normal window to incognito.
Two things that this extension does that are annoying: 1. It opens up a new full-screen browser window instead of a window the same size as the current one, and 2. it opens up a new incognito window every time, instead of using an existing one.
Original Incognito This! was much better
Incognito This Tab does exactly what it says it will; it makes the current tab into an incognito tab. In that regard, it's perfect. I however, find Incognito this Tab to be lacking in features. I migrated to Incognito This Tab from Incognito This when the dev decided to add a bunch of junk onto his extension to make money. Some features that Incognito This has that Incognito This Tab doesn't have are: 1. Erasing the tab from your history when you switch the tab to incognito - Incognito This Tab does not do this which is probably the most essential part of why most people use incognito mode. Not having this feature really diminishes a lot of the extension's functionality and makes it significantly less useful. 2. Keyword Switching - Incognito This had an option where you could have a tab automatically open in incognito mode if it had a keyword that the user set in the URL. 3. Keyboard Shortcut - Incognito This allowed you to set a keyboard shortcut for switching a tab to incognito mode while Incognito This Tab does not. 4. Automatic Inactivity Close - This feature isn't really that important to me but to some it is. Basically what this did was automatically close any tabs that had been inactive for a user set amount of time. These are just suggestions that I think the dev should add. You should definitely NOT switch over to Incognito This. At least you shouldn't until the Dev for Incognito This removes the adware from his extension. The tradeoff is by no means worth it in any way.
