The add-on is still spamming web pages. Please correct this.

@prof-membrane Can you be a little more specific? The addon requests one HTML page for every submenu that is opened and parses the HTML to find any videolinks.

It requests not just one HTML page if a video is present. It scrapes every video page for no valid reason. These calls are unnecessary. They cause a high server load and a long delay to view the actual page. This may trigger the DDOS prevention after a few page views and the user is left with a loading screen.

I'am unable to find the problem. I can't see where the plugin spamms page request. If a site ofers links, the scrapper tries to load the pages, thats what's the user expect.

To mitigate the probleme, paging was introduced
