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.

Description (please include examples/screenshots where applicable)

When clicking on a picture in a reddit post on www.reddit.com in Firefox the new tab with the enlarged picture gets the following error:

The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to preview.redd.it. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

This happens with any picture in a post, can recreate. Turning off the extension fixes it. I'm not sure how to add a url to the exception list or if that's possible.

Just add reddit.com to the no-skip-urls list.
