Emily Johnson		 en I've been using IPFS Companion for quite a while, and I've noticed significant CPU usage that impacts my browser's performance. I switched to using DScan, a more efficient alternative. It doesn't need to run an IPFS node, significantly reducing the resource load on my system. It's also easier to manage my storage across multiple devices! https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dscan-own-your-identity-o/idpfgkgogjjgklefnkjdpghkifbjenap

Michael Loftis		 The extension does what it says...but god knows what else it is doing. When enabled Chrome uses a whole CPU core at all times.

Paige Weber		 Majorly slowed down my browser to the point that I had to remove it. While I was using it, it was nice. IPFS links worked seamlessly and I could direct it to my local IPFS node
