Persist data across multiple computers + manual backups #49

Open niieani opened 8 years ago

It would be great if Falcon were able to persist the data across multiple computers and perhaps had an automated backup system. It might be cool if one could run a server that Falcon logs into to sync the data -- this could even potentially turn it into a SASS business model for people who don't want to run their own servers.

Hmm - I thought extension cache was synced across browser installs if you're logged in with a Google account. Is this not happening for you? Or is Falcon not setup this way? @lengstrom

Extension cache is not synced across browser installs. The upper limit for data storage in that method is not high enough for Falcon (I forget the raw numbers). I'm not too interested in making servers for this b/c I wouldn't feel comfortable security wise without spending a lot of time getting it right. It's a cool idea though - maybe in the future when I have more time!

Hi, does anybody know where is my blacklist stored? I loaded the extension as an unpacked one. I can't find any reference to my bank, .*fineco.*. I ask because I would like to export settings to other machines. Thanks
