Ability to export modified settings #223

Open alliedsincro opened 7 months ago

alliedsincro commented 7 months ago

Hi i have a bunch of shortcuts and some blacklisted websites.

I change browsers frequently and it is a pain to set them up everytime. It should be easy to introduce ability to export the modified settings as a file which can then be imported to restore them in new installs.

This can be just like how config files of various programmes can be exported to restore settings and other user changes later.

OR, a much more tedious option would be to have accounts in this extension which syncs up everything in a centralised way. That can be used for more than just settings as it can show statistics related to viewing habits across devices and much more.

What are you saying? How did you do it? Were you able to export individual settings and setup keyboard shortcuts?

I exported the settings into a text file & a screenshot.

If you "change browsers frequently and it is a pain to set them up everytime", then having a text file/screenshot is exactly the same as an automagical export button - since you either KNOW when you change the settings & back them up in a location that you can check each time that you change browsers or you don't. Whether you backup settings via a button or copy/paste into a text file is exactly the same.

How to export the settings like the shortcuts to an external text file?

A screenshot is not helpful at all as I will still have to manually add them one by one. It is not about remembering the shortcuts. It is about inputing them everytime I install the extension again.

A feature for a file format which can be exported and imported easily is what is needed.
