SketchFab is bogging down my machine

I would like to see SketchFab have a deactivation switch. It is bogging down both my machine and Cloud Drive with thousands of model thumbnails.

Hello ,

Thanks for the feedback. I will be bringing this up with the team to see if this can be something to explore for a future update. Please also submit your feedback on our Public Roadmap here, as this is the best place to submit feedback regarding new features or enhancements to current features you would like to see.

For now, I recommend excluding any of the Cloud Library folders in the Twinmotion2022.2 folder in Documents from synchronizing with any cloud sync/backup service you might use, as these folders rely on streaming new asset thumbnails in over time, and these libraries will grow in future updates, especially the Sketchfab library, which contains constantly updated user-generated content. Each individual thumbnail file itself is very small, using only a few KB of space, but I can see how this can grow to be an issue over time, given the size of the Sketchfab library. You can safely delete the thumbnails folder's contents for the time being to free up storage space. It will repopulate as you use the Sketchfab library again, but it will only do so as you browse the library. If you don't open the Sketchfab library, no new thumbnails should be streamed into and saved to the thumbnails folder.

Best,
