Whatever your reasons, you can easily adjust fonts across Chrome in Settings. Other times you might just prefer a larger font or a clearer one. Sometimes extensions can mess with the default fonts that Chrome uses to display content. I recommend blocking JavaScript on a few sites that you use regularly. So it’s best to do it on a site-by-site basis. If you block it across all sites, pretty much the whole internet will stop working. You can block JavaScript for all sites, or add sites to a block list which cuts off JavaScript just for those sites. The default setting is “Allowed” for all sites.

Go here: chrome://settings/content/javascript All you have to do is disable JavaScript on the sites that harass you about your ad blocker. They’ll either lock access until you turn your adblocker off or they’ll hit you with a bunch of ads asking you to turn ads back on. Some sites have gotten more aggressive by blocking ad blockers. Get Around Ad Blocker BlockingĪre you using a Chrome ad blocker to save on bandwidth, speed up browsing, and generally get all those poorly targeted reminders ads off your screen? Some still do get through, but not nearly as many. Toggle that switch over to “Blocked” and you shouldn’t see any notification requests. By default, it’s set to “Ask before sending,” which means you’ll see the “ wants to send you notifications” popup on websites. You’ll see a list of websites with their associated permissions. Start here: chrome://settings/content/notifications The good news is, you can turn them these notification requests in your Chrome settings. Constantly clicking “no” can get distracting. Since nearly every website now supports Chrome notifications, you’re likely to get way too many requests. No More Notification RequestsĬhrome notifications can be useful but they can also create too much noise.

Here, you’ll find a centralized set of controls that manages tabs, search engines, privacy, how content is displayed, how cookies and site data are used, and lots of other settings. To find Chrome settings, go to the Chrome menu (the three dots next to your profile picture) and select Settings, or type chrome://settings into the omnibar. We’ll also include how to open Chrome’s experimental settings, known as Flags, and how to reset Chrome to default if you want to start over. Below, we put together nine of our favorites. There are lots of ways to get more out of Chrome.
