Is this PageSpeed extension still available?

I can not find the download link for this extension. Does anyone has it? Or is this extension replaces by others?

There are some similar extensions that look a lot like it, but Google has deprecated the actual extension they used to have.

As the others have mentioned, the PageSpeed extension does not exist anymore. However, Google has the 'Lighthouse' tool that can be used instead.

The report provided appears to be a reasonable improvement on the PageSpeed extension but it only works for online pages, unfortunately.

As of early 2020, it appears that the lighthouse tools can be accessed directly in Chrome DevTools on the audit tab--no download or installation required.
