Suggestion: Disable "Show status icons in file explorer" by default #32

Description

Context:

  • In the previous version, enabling this plugin caused Obsidian to freeze completely shortly after activation.
  • After updating, I tested it again: the same freeze occurred (though it recovered after a long wait).

Possible Causes:

  1. Performance overhead: My vault contains thousands of notes. Rendering icons for all files in the explorer might trigger excessive traversal/processing? 🤔
  2. Plugin conflicts: I also use:
    • FrontmatterTitle
    • FolderNotes
      (Both modify the File Explorer behavior — potential interaction issues?)

Suggestion:

  • Default this option to "OFF" to prevent freezes for users with large vaults.
