Some web pages use intermediary pages before redirecting to a final page. This add-on tries to extract the final url from the intermediary url and goes there straight away if successful.

Add /search and archive.org to no skip list #226

Closed qqii closed 3 years ago

These exceptions are not general enough to be included in the default list.

I can understand archive.org but /search?

Most search engines (I've tested Google, Bing and Yandex) support site:<url> so it would be unexpected to redirect when you're actually looking for a qualified search.

There are probably webpages where that doesn't apply. And I can't support the whole web. That's why you can edit the no skip lists.
