Hello. I need help with: `DOMException: The quota has been exceeded.` I'm trying to use IndexedDB. However, the code is requesting persistent storage: `await window.navigator.storage.persist();` (and this is returning true) This website is only storing about 8MB of data and I have a different website storing 200MB of data (userscript) The storage medium still has 140GB available. What quota did I exceed? If this is the wrong place, please direct me to the right place

Chosen solution

I deleted both: storage/default/[website]/ls storage/default/[website]/cache

Directories, restarted the browser... Now it seems to be working. (I made a backup, btw)
