Adding a card faster

Look at the ability to increase the speed of adding a page - for example, it takes between 3-5 seconds for the browser extension to load up the current page. Is it possible to have a setting/option to either a) add the page in the current way, or b) just add the page and let the user add the relevant info at a later time?

Guess what!

All the browser extensions have been updated.. and they are much faster ๐Ÿš€

- Instant load on extension click
- Reorganized and streamlined interface (hid tags in a drawer)
- BONUS! Added the ability to take a screenshot of the page to use as the Card thumbnail.

Make sure your Chrome/Firefox/Safari/Edge are updated to the latest version, restart your browser just in case, you should be then updated to the Stacklist extension 1.4.0 for the new version.

Yeah, I currently am not using it for this reason. Compared to other bookmark extensions, its just too slow.

@Kyle Hudson@Kyle Hudson-2 - thanks for the news - its the one thing that is stopping me using it all the time - I am trialling another product simultaneously which has their browser extension appear as:

When in normal mode:

When text is highlighted or mouse hover:

Which, when you click 'add bookmark' pulls it in so it looks like this:

Here is another example that added info afterwards as a test:

Looking into speeding up browser page load time.

@Paul Malcolm Thanks for this! We'll look at how we can increase the speed of the Browser Extension pulling the page information and see how we can cut that time down. I'll setup a ticket with the Engineering team and we'll discuss.

I'll let you personally know when we have a solve.

Also FYI, we're working with Google to create a 1-click extension that wouldn't load anything just tell you ๐Ÿ‘ and Google Gemini would pull all the info, make recommendations on description and tags, suggest a few tags, etc. You wouldnt need to do anything. Then you could add context later if you want.

Really appreciate taking the time to let us know your feedback! We'll keep you you updated.
