Just use your browser as normal. The extension has a "T" logo with a black badge on it that shows you how many minutes you've spent within a tab. Icon generated with https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/icons-launcher.html.
- Click away from chrome window, click back into window, open a new tab, click into new tab. Stops tracking because chrome thinks window is out of focus.
- Environment is Arch Linux running gnome shell under X11 and Wayland.
- There also seems to be a bug where it continues tracking when you are not focused on the chrome window any longer and go to an application outside of chrome.
