How to pin GBATemp to your Taskbar with Google Chrome

Hello guys. Today, I'm making a very simple tutorial and hope you learn something! This is just a simple tutorial on how to pin GBATemp to your taskbar in Windows. GBATemp will run like a standalone application too, not just act as a shortcut (Looking at you Microsoft Edge...)!

1. Go to https://gbatemp.net

2. Click the button in the top right corner that looks like 3 dots laid out vertically.

3. Hover over the drop down labeled "More Tools..." (Above settings)

4. Click "Add to Desktop"

5 (Optional). Rename "GBATemp - Independent Gaming Community" to "GBATemp" or anything else you would like.

6. Make sure "Open as Window" is selected!

7. From your desktop, drag the shortcut to your taskbar.

8. You're done! Now you have GBATemp on your taskbar that runs like a standalone application!

Next we need an actual gbatemp app...
The mobile interface is good as is, we don't need an app.
What we do need is support for browser notifications.

Does this work on FireFox? That'd be nice.
Also, somebody should make a 3DS app that lets you browse the temp.
It's also possible with Firefox. Just create a shortcut to firefox, open Properties and add
Code:
-new-window https://gbatemp.net/
at the end of the Target line
