Google publishes a list of its favorite Chrome extensions every year. The company has just published the list for 2022 on the official The Keyword blog. Since it is a bit difficult accessibility-wise, we thought that it is a good idea to give you a cleaner list that is easier to go through.

Also, Google explains each extension in a few words only, which often is not enough to fully understand its functionality and limitations.
