Mastodon Redirector is a free Chrome add-on developed by Bramus Van Damme. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This handy extension aims to streamline the navigation of Mastodon URLs across different instances.

One of the challenges faced by Mastodon users is the inability to directly follow people on other instances. This requires copying the username and manually searching for it on the instance that hosts your account. The same inconvenience applies to favoriting and boosting posts when accessed via their instance's URL.

To alleviate this hassle, Mastodon Redirector offers a simple solution. By clicking the extension's button, you will be seamlessly redirected to the corresponding account or status update on the Masto instance you are currently using. This eliminates the need for manual searching and enhances the user experience by providing direct access to content.

With its intuitive functionality and free license, Mastodon Redirector is a valuable tool for Mastodon users who want to enhance their browsing experience and effortlessly navigate between instances.
