Reviews: Clear This Site!

The Perfect Will Sep 13, 2025

Works well. Using Thorium and wanted a feature like Brave browser's forget me feature. The first option settings to "Empty full cache..." could be more clear that enabling it does not enable all settings to be non site specific. At first I wasn't sure, and thought if I enabled it, then all site options would be emptied for all sites. In my case a simple text change would resolve it. "ALSO empty the full browser cache when empting individual site data..."

Glad you enjoy it, and thank you for the helpful feedback! I made a new release where I have re-written some of the options to make their effect more clear and to give a better sense of what each does. Thanks! Cheers, Philip

I was looking for something like this, but I have to uninstall (at least for now!) because of too many accidental clicks. I like to keep it pinned in the toolbar, but in this case I'd like to have a popup confirmation - maybe a little window that pops up showing the checklist of what will be deleted (i.e., the options) with a quick confirm button, and this would also give the user the chance to change an option before confirming. Another suggestion, for less technically inclined users, add... Show more

Thanks for the great suggestions! I had initially resisted adding a confirmation because I wanted to just keep this extension as simple as possible, but after more consideration I think you are right that it is nice to have the option. There is now a new release that includes an optional confirmation popup (though it is off by default) and some descriptions on the options page to hopefully make them more clear. Cheers, Philip

There is no reason this extension needs to read my browsing history.

Hi Carter, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, and sorry it did not meet your expectations. I agree with you, and just to set the record straight, the extension CANNOT access your browsing history. However, I was surprised to discover that requesting permission to the browser's 'tab' API triggers this warning, since an extension could theoretically log every site you go to (this extension included this permission in order to view the url of the active tab and reload/close it). I will switch back to the more restrictive 'activeTab', which requires an extra click but at least doesn't allow any potential tracking. Thanks again for your feedback. Cheers, Philip
