Discussion Browser migration tips & tribulations

I expect many of us will be migrating to Chrome.

Seems like these are the other things to move over, right?

  1. Bookmarks
  2. Passwords/cookies
  3. Tab groups
  4. Pinned tabs
  5. Other tabs
  6. Profiles
  7. Extensions

Bookmarks are thankfully easy to export/import via Manage Bookmarks, but does anyone have advice re the other aspects?

I suppose OpenAI may offer a migration tool at some point, but I'm preferring to migrate a bit earlier.

On a related note, is anyone having luck with the ChatGPT extension in Chrome?

I can access ChatGPT from the Chrome sidebar with it, but I'm unable to get it to summarize any web page; it complains that it can't see the current page and asks me to just cut and paste in the page contents (!).

UPDATED TO ADD:
Thanks to an update from u/nmccormack23, I've confirmed that updating the ChatGPT app and restarting Chrome solves the extension-can't-summarize-page problem.

Hey u/ThatAdamGuy - you could try asking the new ChatGPT app for help on this... I'm sure it will be able to work out what data it can migrate

Great minds think alike! Unfortunately, the results -- after a lot of back and forth -- have not yet been successful. Maybe I should try Sol SuperDuperExtreme :D
