Because I was in a remote location without internet, I noticed that rink attempts to download currency data from your server / CDN. Technically, this is a privacy violation (at least in the EU) because it might be unexpected, as it is not necessarily required for rink’s main feature.
Steps To Reproduce
start rink without internet
See that rink takes longer to start & then logs a timeout error
Expected
rink should, maybe only on the first start, or when required, ask the user before fetching data
at least, as a first hotfix, the fetching should also be logged when successful, so new users are made aware of that feature & so have at least can think about opting-out
Actual
Assuming a user of rink always has a fast internet connection & the server / CDN is always up, then a user might never learn that rink accesses a remote server.
Further
rink is a cool tool & I find it cool that you made it open source. I do not report this because I want to sue you (& I will not), but because I want to prevent that from happening to you.
