Backspace navigation (for Linux) is a simple Chrome extension developed by jdmiller93. This free extension allows users to use the backspace key to navigate back one page in their browser history, as long as they are not typing in an input field. Additionally, users can use the shift+backspace combination to navigate forward.

The extension is specifically designed for Linux users, as Chrome for Linux does not have this feature built-in. However, it should not interfere with the built-in backspace navigation on Windows or Mac.

With Backspace navigation (for Linux), users can easily navigate through their browsing history without the need to reach for the mouse or use other keyboard shortcuts. This extension provides a convenient and efficient way to navigate within the browser, enhancing the overall user experience.
