Unfreeze for ChatGPT – Fixes freezing in long ChatGPT conversations

Summary: Unfreeze for ChatGPT reduces browser crashes and freezes by limiting the visible chat history to the last 100 messages while keeping earlier messages in memory for on-demand loading. It addresses performance issues caused by ChatGPT rendering thousands of messages simultaneously.

What it does

The extension intercepts ChatGPT’s API responses and renders only the last 100 messages in the DOM, allowing users to load earlier messages as needed. This reduces DOM node count and memory usage.

Who it's for

Users with long-running ChatGPT conversations, especially those exceeding 1000 messages, who experience freezing or crashes.

Why it matters

It prevents browser tabs from freezing or crashing by managing the rendering load of extensive chat histories in ChatGPT’s React frontend.
