Large pre-existing blocklist causes app to run a very long time #11

Open bendys opened 5 years ago

bendys commented 5 years ago

When I run it on a blog that doesn't have anyone blocked, it works fine. But on any of my other blogs with blocklists, it isn't working. My issue seems to be that it attempts to open my entire blocklist before it does anything after I put in the URLs, even when I don't press export, and considering I use stuff like this, that.... can take a while. Last time I checked I had near 20,000 URLs blocked. Is there a way we could configure that to turn off or something else? I've been using the extension for a while, this is the first time I've ever had an issue, to be completely honest!

That is the expected behavior. I have it open the blocklist to prevent it trying to block already blocked users. I didn't think about anyone having so many blogs blocked, sorry.

You may want to temporarily go back to version 1.7.5 (here is a link to that release)

There are way too many shortcut hotkeys on GitHub. Didn't mean to close the issue.

My next step is to speed up the export process, but with 20k blocks that could still take a very long time (I'm estimating around an hour on my computer, but ymmv)... I'll take a look and see what I can do.

Thank you for the help! Yeah, I suppose most people aren't going to consider the fact that I have 20,000 people blocked, lol
