Columnify
Item media 1 screenshot

Overview

Turns page-width text into a more readable column.

With just one keystroke, instantly transform a page with text that stretches across the entire screen into a manageable column for easier reading. Ctrl+Shift+K to columnify. Ctrl+Shift+L to decolumnify. There are other apps that include this feature, but because they also include a lot of other stuff, they have a clunky interface and you end up doing a lot more work and seeing more needless popups than you need for a feature like this. This is instant: boom, the page is a column. No forms to fill out, no passwords. Please give any comments or suggestions!

With a name like that i was expecting to be an Extension that divided the text into columns. That's not the case. Neither divide the text, or as far as i can see it does nothing.

could have been better with keyboard shortcuts or slider for adjusting the column width in my case it does not properly center the content but rather has a right offset that can only be corrected by zooming out to 80% in websites that does not by default already center their content. im especially talking about google search results, which is why i looked for this in the first place. even after all these years google has had not even the slightest thought to think about how their ui looks in...
