Incompatible Browser Extensions

ClearURLs

The ClearURLs browser extension for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox inhibits Gitpod workspaces from initialising and the problem manifests with the following symptoms:

  • dark theme does not load
  • the bottom left gitpod button is missing
  • the vscode market place does not load

This issue can be resolved by disabling “ETag filtering” in ClearURLs’ settings. A issue has been created that requests to whitelist Gitpod by default and we would apprciate your upvotes on the issue.
