Have to Install Dictionary Every Use of Extension / Desktop App?
If this isn't a bug, I apologize. I'm new to this app. But when I use this extension on my Mac, I have to download the dictionary every time before I can use the extension.
Is this expected behavior? I prefer creating flashcards via my laptop, so I was just curious if that was just one of the consequences of using the extension for now.
Another question is if you have a desktop app coming soon to prevent having to do this?

There is no desktop app, it’s a browser extension. I don’t think one is planned at all.
Usually if a dictionary keeps deleting itself it’s cuz you’re low on space, so chrome will auto delete files from the browser extensions to save space

Yes I'm aware there is no desktop app, I was just asking if there would be one. I'll see what it taking up space in my browser to prevent it from downloading the dictionaries over and over again

@HoneyDaBee How much space do you have left on your main drive?
Chrome auto deletes extension data when there's not enough

On my computer, I have over 125 GB of space left. I cleared my browsing data just. now, but I don't have a lot of extensions. I'm using Chrome and only use Migaku at the moment as my only extension
I think clearing my cache helped, as I didn't have to redownload any of the dictionaries this time
