New York Times Byline Restorer is a Chrome extension developed by Dan Stillman. This free add-on falls under the category of Browsers, specifically Add-ons & Tools. The purpose of this extension is to restore author bylines to the New York Times homepage and section pages.

In August 2018, the New York Times removed bylines from its homepage and section pages, which led to a loss of valuable information for readers. With New York Times Byline Restorer, users can now easily bring back the author bylines and enhance their reading experience. Additionally, this extension offers the option to remove the "x min read" lines that were added to the homepage in September 2022, providing users with a cleaner interface.

New York Times Byline Restorer is a simple and straightforward solution for those who value knowing the authors of the articles they read on the New York Times website. With just a few clicks, users can regain access to this important piece of information and enjoy a more informed reading experience.
