Google Chrome is shoving previous search queries into your new tab page

Google Chrome, the popular web browser developed by Google, is experimenting with a new feature on its new tab page that allows users to quickly access their recent search queries. The feature, which is controlled by the chrome://flags/#organic-repeatable-queries flag, is designed to make it easier for users to find and access previous search queries. However, many users have criticized the feature for being difficult to use and for taking up valuable space on the new tab page.

The recent search queries are displayed in the collection of most visited sites, located below the new tab’s search bar. However, because search queries can often be much longer than site titles, and they don’t have intuitive icons that could help users further identify what they are, it can be difficult for users to identify what they are looking for when they tap the shortcuts.

Additionally, because the feature is controlled by a chrome flag, users have limited options for controlling it. The Google chrome://flags/#organic-repeatable-queries flag offers a few layouts and options, including the ability to disable it completely. However, the feature is currently rolling out more widely, and it is not clear if users will be able to opt out of it. Overall, while the new feature is designed to make it easier for users to find and access previous search queries, it has received mixed reactions from users. Some have praised the feature for being convenient, while others have criticized it for being difficult to use and for taking up valuable space on the new tab page.
