Disable LinkedIn Messages Popups #43

Closed dtmunir closed 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. LinkedIn is a great tool but a huge memory drainer. If I'm doing some prospecting work and have a few (dozen) LinkedIn tabs open in the background, even a single new incoming LinkedIn message, causes a pop-up on every single tab, generates a ton of 'pings' and immediately hogs all the memory (in Chrome and Edge). I wish there was a way to disable the popups that LinkedIn messages generate.

Describe the solution you'd like Have a toggle so that LinekdIn message pop-ups can be disabled. If there are new messages, I should have to go to the messages page to see them.

Hmm, linkoff works primarily visually. While it could disable these messages visually it probably wouldn't result in any memory savings.
