Wurdearring: 4 fan 5
troch Ajith Nair, 6 jierren lynAn excellent replacement for StayFocusd (which is available only for Chromium). I would have rated it 5 stars, but I gave just 4 because it's missing one feature I want: remove the count-down timer from the add-on icon, and display it only on the page.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch ECreator, 4 oeren lynFinally a good extension.
Highly recommend everyone to use this instead of other alternatives, including ethical and functionality ones.
This extension better supports wildcards and regular expressions. Not only that but it has a decent documentation about that and includes multiple features like lockdown, different block sets, easy "message from yourself" without custom code, timer and statistics. That was just amazing because I was able to block many domains I wished with more advanced filters.
I believe the only things I missed was search engine results blocks, which would be quite hard to implement. That would be very useful because I usually find domains I would not like to visit due to leech and psychological damage by searching. The extension does what it promises, though, and I can't ask for more.
________________________________
*My* ethical point of view below (which is not about how the extensions work or their features):
I don't recommend other popular alternatives like uBlocklist and Block Site because of another reason: They are HEAVILY vibe coded and this is the kind of shit that ruined Software Development for many people, me included. AI-"assisted" bullshit is horrendous and just destroyed the whole career. Not only that, but between every single LLM, the developers used Claude, by Anthropic; which is the most privacy invasive popular company I've seen thus far, Google included.
That is also more concerning than other models because of how integrated it is into deepfake generation, slop coding and AI-""art"". Antropo- from greek means human and -pic is a suffix for "in such manner". That being said, the fact a company promoting a product that replaces jobs, hobbies and makes us lose our humanity is named "human-like", is just absolutely absurd. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 20018876, ien dei lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 20097579, 6 dagen lynthe absolute best! Works for everything, the configuration is a little bit confusing so I don't have time limits or the thing where you get a certain amount of unblocked time every week which would be cool but that's because im too lazy to configure it and because honestly just turning it on and off alone is such a game changer I haven't really needed to sort the rest out. Thank you so much!!!!!

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Venkat, 10 dagen lynSuper useful.. Saving my hours from distraction. Thanks for keeping this for free!
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch superinfra, 12 dagen lynVery robust and effective extension!
My only issue with it is that blocking a site overnight is harder than it needs to be, since the block time range only works if the second number is larger than the first.
That means setting 23:00-5:00 doesn't work, and you have to do both 23:00-24:00 and 00:00-5:00 instead. It works fine, but it sometimes says that the page will be unblocked at midnight even though it'll be immediately blocked right after.
Thank you for making this add-on! - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Joreck, 15 dagen lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Talos, 18 dagen lynAfter testing so many different distraction reducing apps, extensions, etc, this is the by far the best one i have found on any platform. It is incredibly detailed and customisable, with a focus mode (lockdown mode), different block sets, time based blocks, usage limit based blocking, customisable overrides (including limits on the duration and number of overrides), blocking pages, and so much more. My only wish is they turn it into an android app with similar functionality!

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Nikki, ien moanne lynI find that this extension is very helpful for keeping myself from going to time-wasting websites while working on class assignments. The lockdown function is very useful.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Amadeu, ien moanne lynSimple and useful. Has improved my life significantly by blocking the websites that try to make it worse :)
