No indication of progress for large playlists #137

Closed finite-state-machine closed 1 year ago

finite-state-machine commented 1 year ago

When exporting a large playlist, there's no indication anything is happening after I click the 'Export' button. The Debug -> Network panel shows that the playlist's contents are indeed being analyzed, and the export does eventually succeed, but there's no user-facing indication of work in progress. As the export can take several minutes, users may assume the app doesn't work, and give up.

Browser: Firefox 108.0.2 Issue is reproducible even with all ad-blocking/privacy plugins (uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger) disabled.

As a post-script to the above: thank you so much, @watsonbox, for making such a useful and usable tool, and for making it available at no cost to the end user!
