We spend long hours on the Internet every day doing the same things we do. Lifehacker has collected extensions for you that automate and speed up their implementation.

1. Send Anywhere

This extension will allow you to share files with anyone with just one click. To do this, you just need to drag a picture, video, document or archive into the extension's pop-up window. The resulting download link can be sent by e-mail, in a messenger or published on a social network. No registrations, no restrictions.

2. Fwrdto.me

Despite the huge number of different note and bookmarking services, many users still continue to send links to interesting pages to their own mail. Fwrdto.me makes it quick and easy.

3. Copy All URLs

If you find on some page a whole scattering of useful links that may be useful to you, then it is not at all necessary to spend time saving each of them as favorites. The Copy All URLs extension can instantly collect all URLs from an open page and save them to a file (txt, html, json).

4. Chrono Download Manager

Chrome's default download manager is not very feature rich. If you often download pictures, videos and files from the Internet, take a look at Chrono Download Manager. This extension can do almost everything you need, including pause downloads, download on schedule, capture files using specified masks, and much more.

5. Fine Link Selector

Sometimes problems arise completely from scratch. For example, when you are trying to highlight a piece of text that is a link. Have you ever tried it? If so, you will quickly understand everything and install the Fine Link Selector extension for yourself.

6. Don’t Fuck With Paste

For security reasons, some services prohibit pasting passwords from the clipboard during authorization. I have to enter long combinations of letters and numbers by hand, swearing at the developers. The Don’t Fuck With Paste extension solves this problem.

7. Clipboard History 2

By default, the system clipboard allows only one value to be saved. This, of course, is not enough, so there are third-party clipboard managers that significantly expand the capabilities of this tool. Clipboard History 2 can reliably store everything that you copied over several days in the Chrome browser. It is possible to make backups on a local machine or in the Google cloud.

8. Downloads Router

Downloads Router is another extension to enhance Chrome's built-in download manager. With its help, it becomes possible to automatically save files in different folders according to the rules you specify. For example, all uploaded pictures will go to the Pictures folder, audio files will be saved to the Music folder, and the archives will be in the Archives folder.

9.gleeBox

gleeBox is the command line for your browser. With its help, you can perform almost any action by entering the necessary commands from the keyboard. It will be possible to take a screenshot, share a page, upload a file, write a letter completely without the participation of a mouse. Programmers will appreciate.

10. MINI Fast Forward

This extension will help you conserve your most valuable resource - time. After installing it, you will be able to instantly speed up the playback of videos on YouTube and Facebook. You can quickly skip boring and drawn-out moments without losing the ability to keep track of what is happening on the screen.
