Please explain why nothing is happening.
It has a accepted solution.
But one key issue is that browers throttle down or even pause inactive
windows/background tabs.
Partly blame digital currency mining for this, blame the rest on bad
programmers running full tilt when they don't need to and DDOS trojans
for the rest.
I haven't looked this up, but is there a way to ask the user for
permission to run as a background app without performance restrictions?
That is the only way I forsee this working across all browsers.
