Good to know

• It uses the same rules engine as the app, so a link built in Chrome follows the same convention.
• It reads the address of the tab only when you open the extension, and keeps your sign-in in the extension's own storage.
• It works on every plan. Free plan limits, such as 100 short links a month, still apply.
• You need a workspace first. If you have none, the extension asks you to create one in Link Console.
