Please add blacklist feature #12

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

The extension already has whitelist, but what I'm asking for is blacklist. Websites on that list will be automatically unloaded when open it background tabs and websites don't on that list will be unaffected. It's the reverse of whitelist.

My use case: I only use lull-the-tabs for youtube. I prefer the tabs will be automatically loaded as normal with other sites. It's a workaround for Pale Moon's lack of multiprocesses where the browser loads each tab into separate process and it will be inactive until the user clicked on it. On Firefox, I don't suffer from this problem. There also no extensions for Pale Moon that currently support emulate this behavior of Firefox so I have to use this workaround.

Please add this feature. Thank you.

Since this has a very specific use case, I can't promise it will be implemented anytime soon. Patches are welcome.

It will be a very useful feature indeed. Please consider add it when you have spare time. I just started to learn HTML and have no background on programming except some C learned on school, patches from me are very unlikely. Sorry.
