Google Container and Reddit Enhancement Suite Opens New Window on Sync

Open TWDickson opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

When enabling Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) automatic backup to Google Drive, Google Container forces a new window to open momentarily while it syncs.

Certainly an edge case but it's annoying. Perhaps a whitelisting option?

Hmm - in one regard, this could be seen as the benefit of this plugin: to remind you that a 'container action' has occurred.

Also, links that take you between containers can be risky, as they can encode information about the cookies on both sides, effectively allowing your multiple containers to be treated as multiple devices on the same account.

So maybe it should be considered best-practice, as a privacy tool, to alert you to this possibility?
