[Bug]: Can't set cookies for Google search in preview popup #7

Open DavidGP opened 8 months ago

What happened?

When doing a Google search on a text selection, Google shows the cookies preference page every time, instead of the search results page in the popup. When the cookies prefs are set, they are not saved. Also, signing in into your Google account does not work in the popup.

What browser are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome

The extension uses a version of Google search that is equivalent to incognito browsing. There are quirks to previewing google with cookies.

I'll keep this bug open since I personally find the cookie popups annoying too.

The latest version of the extension includes the option "[Advanced] Disable Incognito Google" which when enabled would use the normal signed-in Google search url.
