Linkwarden extension sends domain to server on tab switch

4 months ago 6

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The browser extension currently makes a request to the linkwarden server on every tab click with the domain of the tab you click on.

https://github.com/linkwarden/browser-extension/blob/main/src/pages/Background/index.ts#L303
https://github.com/linkwarden/browser-extension/blob/main/src/%40/lib/actions/links.ts#L120

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like for the extension to save all hosts and cache them for a determined amount of time and or refresh that cache the moment you click on the popup

Describe alternatives you've considered

A option to disable the badge entirely since it's not all that useful for the downsides it brings with it load / privacy
