Lighthouse: Chrome Extensions affect your results

Created on 22 Jun 2018  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: GoogleChrome/lighthouse

I did a test on my chrome. I have a lot of extensions for SEO etc. and I've tested it on a plain html page and have it at very slow speeds.

Going on Incognito and doing an audit ignores extensions and you get a better score.

Thanks for filing @johnfrancisli. Indeed they do, we've documented this fact in our scoring guide.

Do you have suggestions for when and how you would expect this information to be surfaced to you without overloading the user with all the other things in the guide? :)
