Debugging

the seen bookmarks cache is kept in synced storage and will prevent downloading already fetched bookmarks (to minimize fetch requests from rate limited servers)

• to reset seen bookmarks; go to manage extensions -> preferences, and press clear cache

the settings page accepts any number of server entries, must be valid json

theres no reason this shouldnt work on chromium but I havent tested it there.
