Preload the next page of a webcomic for faster archive binging
Webcomic Preloader Extension
To activate the extension (per tab):
- open the webcomic you want to read
- press the arrow symbol in the extension bar;
the arrow should turn yellow
To teach the extension how to find the next page, just click the link to the next page as normal. After a few seconds, the page should change, and the arrow should turn green. If the arrow doesn't turn green, the extension failed to identify the pattern for the \"next page\" link; if there are multiple links to the next page, try clicking a different one.
To go to the next page of a comic, either click the normal link to the next page or press enter.
This is an entirely personal project.
