Dash now forces a permanent floating icon into the bottom right of every webpage. With no option to disable it. It even blocks submit buttons on various websites etc. Have to uninstall, sad to lose what was a really handy tool otherwise :( Was absolutely no need to add this. Had used this extension for years happily, and the Command-E/Dash icon always worked just fine in the extension icons row like any regular extension does...

Longtime Command+e user (now Dropbox Dash post acquisition). The product in general is really helpful, but the new dash chrome extension is constantly eating 40+% of CPU cycles when it's turned on. It shouldn't be doing much of anything unless I'm opening a new web page, or tapping on it to add a bookmark to dash for the current site. Please fix (mid 2015 Macbook Pro 2.2 quad-core i7, 16gb RAM running Monterey 12.6.1)
