Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I was trying to import a Factorio blueprint first to the overlay Notes app, and then to the game, but unfortunately the overlay crashes instead. The string is like 1.5MB in size.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Copy a larger than 1MB string
  2. Paste into Notes app in overlay
  3. Overlay crashes
