User reviews
"Google Direct" tends to create double entries in the tab's history that make it more difficult to navigate back in the history.
You may want to use an alternative approach like "Remove Google Redirection" instead.

For me it doesn't work. I have PiHole blocking tracking domains. Thus I can't open adverised links on top of Google Search results list. With or with out this add-on. What am I doing wrong?
