LeechBlock NG by James Anderson
Review by Ipasd
Rated 4 out of 5
by Ipasd, a year agoThanks to this add-on, I think I'm finally on my way to overcome my surfing addiction.
This add-on has many different options to allow different kinds of blocking and also allows you to put them in groups called 'sets.' For example, you can block a website you never want to go on, block a website on certain times of the day, and websites that aren't blocked at all. All of these options can be activated simultaneously and that is what I think makes this add-on better than most others of the same purpose, where they generally only allow blocking and nothing else.
My only complaints (explaining the 4 stars instead of 5) are that the interface isn't as nice as it could be. I would like to be able to get to all the options without having to scroll a lot. Another complaint is that some descriptions don't feel quite as clear until you enable them for yourself.

(actually not written by me, but my dad... :o) - Rated 5 out of 5by Murly, 15 days agoThis extension helped me organise days better. I tend to forget how to organise my time, so I block the sites I usually lose time on when I know I should do something else.
The only thing I wished was there that isn't is an off button for certain blocks. You can alway override, but it's redundant and sometimes inconvenient. I wish I could store a block set and only use it when I need it instead of having of overriding it or deleting it and redoing it each time.
Excluding this nitpick, everithing is as great as it could be.Developer response
posted 15 days agoThanks for the review! Perhaps the lockdown feature provides the functionality you desire? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17886352, 15 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by FasterMiner, a month agoWorks flawlessly so far for its function and it is completely free! Recommend a lot for everyone to help focus on more important tasks and limit addictive websites of all genres!
