Who pays $12 a year for a Chrome extension that just redirects you to another site? Not you!
Someone's charging $12 a year to redirect you to 12ft.io That's just silly. I wrote this in 4 minutes (I counted) and then a month later I added a context menu in 5 minutes (I counted that too).
It's free. Enjoy Comrades.
Just click the 12ft Icon when you're on a paywalled page to jump over to 12ft.io and read the content or you can open a link from the right-click menu in 12ft.io in a new tab.
NOTE: It seems that the 12ft.io service is no more. Some cool person replicated the service as 1ft.io and this extension now uses that. Pour one out for 12ft.io. :( The name of this extension will remain the same as a memorial to the OG.
OLD NOTE: I am not the developer or maintainer of 12ft.io or 1ft.io (the service). I don't know who is, there's no information available about the actual owner/maintainer. I am only the author of this very simple Chrome extension that redirects to that service.

- 1ft.io (which is NOT the original site that they proxy) stopped working. Thanks for all the fish and you are welcome for the traffic.

- If you want to keep using this extension, you can search on google "How to edit chrome extention" and follow the tutorial from "Superside". It is simple as editing a txt, adding the missing number "2". It is easy.

- Redirects to another site: 1ft.io

- do not work anymore ..... I don´t why

- no longer works, but it's not the fault of the extension, rather its the new website. also fun fact: the original wasn't 12 a year to redirect to 12ft, it was 12 a year to optionally support 12ft (it was made by 12ft's developer) and the extension was a (poor) bonus for those who did; anyone can go to 12ft for free still (but it's a javascript removing proxy now, no more paywall bypass. sad)

- its not working for me anymore
- Rochak Agrawal
- The application works, but the icon is black and lacks a background. When placed on the Edge toolbar, the icon becomes invisible against the dark theme.

- It works perfectly.

- Was really good, started displaying ads now. Why has everyone to be greedy?

- Does exactly what it says. A nice addition is to create a google search engine shortcut with https://12ft.io/proxy?q=%s . Would be a 1 min addition to this extension :p

- This is excellent. 12ft for an extension to do a redirect is ridiculous. I would appreciate a keyboard shortcut, though.

- Hi, love it. Works perfectly. I have a request tho, the dark/black nature of the logo in the extension toolbar really makes it hard to see. I always catch myself having to actively search for it. Would be cool if you could maybe consider adding a bright outline to the "12" or something so it´s easier and quicker to spot.

- Consistently, it makes no sense to have to pay to use an extension that bypasses paywalls. Simple, direct, efficient and impeccable.

- If the "someone who has a paid add-on for a redirect to 12ft.io for lazy people" is actually 12ft.io and they will go offline if their bandwidth costs aren't met, then it's worth supporting. But you do you.

- Seemed odd to have to pay for something that removes paywalls so really glad this extension exists as an alternative!
