Cannot open extension popup

When clicking the extension icon, it isn't showing the popup. It just hangs in this state:

I tried removing & reinstalling the extension. Also tried in incognito where this is the only extension enabled.

I think for others it was because of an other extension blocking something. You could try to deactivate all other extensions.

Also sometimes it can just take a few seconds until it establishes contact with the server, that's not fully async there it looks like...

I can reproduce this with only this extension enabled.

However, after waiting 15 - 20s it finally opens. This happens everytime. Maybe because my TubeArchivist server is behind cloudflare?

If this is due to establishing connection, I believe it would be nicer UX if the popup would open and the connection would happen async (not blocking the UI).

Of course this would be just nice-to-have :)

Agree, I wasn't able to spend much time on that. Please help implement that and open a PR.
