If you type: https://<your-alias> You get to the alias.

I think you have to add a / at the end for it to work.

For example, I have an alias called alias with the destination to chrome-extension://nelckmdlallhkgniidbfafekeldjnakb/options.html, so I type alias/ on the address bar to go to the desired page.

It doesn't work with the wildcard ### though, this one goes to Google indeed.

same issue. Maybe I did some mistake? More specific: ALIAS REDIRECT TO: w/### https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/###

But if I type w/Einstein (or w/ Einstein) it opens the google search and not the Wikipedia page.
