One of the most used Download options is missing, which makes using it less practical

  • Besides the problem that it leaves the Chrome download list empty on Linux and Apple systems -- a browser integration deficiency -- there is one more annoying deficiency: It allows you to preselect a dump folder for the files -- for default would be the "Downloads" folder, or the "persepolis" that allows you to separate downloads by file type. But it does not give the option "Always ask" (which folder to dump the download in) which is the most used option on systems with high personal use -- because of the superior practicality of this option for file management.

The same problem is seen in Chrome on Linux -- any version of chrome and any version of Linux -- The download list is empty, creating difficulties in managing downloads. Perhaps, Persepolis should just copy Chrome's clipboard, not intercept. It is known that Chrome has several security devices that can make it difficult to access its internal mechanisms, but since there is a collaboration between the Persepolis team and the Chrome team, it should not be difficult to obtain license and information on how to copy the clipboard without intercepting it. Maybe Google is purposefully making it difficult to prevent downloads of proprietary protected content, but that shouldn't affect unprotected content. Perhaps it is more practical not to copy the browser's clipboard, but the buffer between the host system and the browser, and to use the clipboard only to reference the file fetched in the buffer; I believe this is the future.
