Bug Description

I'm running MeTube locally on Unraid in a docker container.

Browser plugin installed and has worked for over a year, no issues.

Since the last release, the fails.

1.) I've tried many configs. It was on silent (no tab switch) before, but I've enabled the tab switch and it loads Metube no problem;
2.) A have a proxy exposed URL, but also tried the local IP directly, both redirect and open the MeTube Tab, no downloads happen;
3.) I've tested MeTube directly on the server by pasting URLs and it works fine;
4.) I have checked the server logs and there is no log associated with the Chrome Extension request at all;
5.) I'm sure I have the URL configured correctly as it's worked for over a year;
