LeechBlock NG by James Anderson

Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 12797025, 5 years agoWorks as intended, but ended up disabling it when I discovered it is the reason that Firefox is never idling. So I have many tabs, and this plugin is always keeping 10% of the CPU busy (2 processes at 5% each). Disabling the plugin makes the problem go away. My version is 1.0.7.
The workaround mentioned in the FAQ did not work: count only active tabs setting did not make a difference for me.
The reason mentioned in the FAQ for this behaviour is:
> LeechBlock reviews all open tabs every second, to keep track of how much time is spent on the sites listed in your block sets and to determine whether any sites should now be blocked.
I do not need this "feature", I just want to disable access to certain websites from 9 to 5. Since I can't disable the feature, I had to disable the addon and search for a simple one.

- Rated 5 out of 5by SlateGray Vision, 3 days agoThis is amazing, highly customizable and has almost all the types of blocking I need. Best part is grouping of sites and applying block type (password protected, time restricted, etc) based on groups.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Second Home, a month agoОчень хорошее расширение, все функции доступные, а главное нет урезания базового функционала премиумом. Можно выставить как время блокировки (по дням, в час, в неделю итп) как и задать общий максимум времени на определенных сайтах и их дочерних страницах.
Из особо приятного - можно удобно прописать исключения. Нпр. поставить блок на ютуб и все ссылки с него, но исключение ваш любимый канал с йогой или аудиокнигами
Всем советую :) - Rated 5 out of 5by jwala, a month ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Livarevie, a month agoIt is pretty good! It does what it says it does and it's very easy to use once you understand it. My favourite part is how you can block a site but make only a specific part of the site unblocked. It does allow a lot of options. :>
