Linkpull Extension By Endurtech

LinkPull Extension, Grab Any File From a URL

, , , , , , , , ,

I built LinkPull because downloading a file shouldn’t require multiple steps, three tabs, and a prayer that the “Download” button isn’t actually an Ad. If you’ve ever right-clicked a link, chosen “Save As,” and watched your browser fail to save the file with the right extension — or worse, opened a new tab just to paste a URL into some sketchy downloader site — LinkPull is for you.

It’s a small, fast Brave / Chrome browser extension with one job: take a direct file link and pull it down to your computer. That’s it. No accounts, no Ads or upsells, no bloat, and the code is publicly published on GitHub for review. Like this free extension? Buy me a cup of coffee.

Undo Don’t Recommend Channel on YouTube

,

YouTube does not provide a direct way to directly undo the “Don’t Recommend Channel” action once it’s been taken (other than the brief “Undo” notification that initially appears).

However, in this article I cover a few workarounds to consider.

PDF File Name Issue, Fixing Cryptic File Names

, , , ,

Have you ever found yourself trying to make sense of PDF files with names that resemble a cryptic code more than anything meaningful? You’re not alone.

A recent encounter with a client highlighted a common frustration many face: PDFs downloaded from email attachments that retain long, random strings of alphanumeric characters as their titles, even after being renamed.

This article covers this common PDF document saving issue and provides a streamlined solution to save PDF document’s with their actual titles.

Auto Clear Downloads Extension, Chrome Web Store

, , , , ,
A Brave browser extension to clear all completed downloads and hide the downloads icon in toolbar after two minutes. The Auto Clear Downloads Extension was cloned from the Always Clear Downloads 2 Extension which would auto clear downloads after 5 seconds. Like my 30 second version better? [Buy me a cup of coffee].

I published the Auto Clear Downloads Extension source code on GitHub. Feel free to review the source materials and provide me with your feedback. As for me, I love it! But hey, I am biased.

Use Google Maps with Screen Off on Android

, ,

While traveling with Google Maps providing navigation I discovered that I could not sleep the screen without Google Maps navigation closing. I would then have to restart Google Maps navigation each time I opened the screen. In short I believe this is due to the power settings for Google Maps app on my Android phone.

Note: This article is intended for my use only and simply serves as a mental refresher.

Google Authenticator versus Microsoft Authenticator

Google Authenticator versus Microsoft Authenticator

, , , , , ,

Recently switched my 80+ Two Factor Authentication Accounts application from Google Authenticator to Microsoft Authenticator on my Android phone and am very happy with the switch. It may also be worth noting that Microsoft Authenticator currently has a 4.6 star rating whereas Google Authenticator only has a 3.7 rating.

Even with that, I was reluctant to switch over. After all, I have over 80 accounts to manually port over. So I started out with only a few everyday accounts and once I obtained greater confidence I made the full conversion over.
