- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch David, 2 moannen lynGreat extension! Idk how some people can just say "it does not work".
- Wurdearring: 2 fan 5troch Alexander, 2 moannen lynThis extension does in fact block websites, and the orange banner that appears on blocked websites is a nice touch. However, it is sometimes difficult and counterintuitive to black specific websites. You have to be really particular in order to get a website blocked. I have had some instances in which I was easily able to block a website. I simply typed in the URL and that was it. Other times, however, it took many attempts to get a certain website blocked with this extension, and critically, I do not know what I did when I was successful that was different from what I did when I was unsuccessful. Nevertheless, I appreciate the developer's offering of a website blocker extension.

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 16993929, 5 moannen lynIf I can't even block one website, www.youtube.com, what does this extension do other than scrape my browsing data?

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch LeSwause, ien jier lynThis works great! I can block distracting websites like YouTube.
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch David, ien jier lynSimple, realitively easy to use once you figure out to use the "Block domain and all subdomain" setting. Works really well to block unwanted websites. Only thing holding me back from putting 5 stars is that it would be nice to have a password lock option to prevent unwanted changes to the block list.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 13643303, 2 jierren lynDoesn't work for some reason, tried blocking youtube.com, facebook.com and reddit.com.
Edit:
I figured it out, when using the default rule (Block domain) it only applies to the second-level domain (youtube.com) but since many websites redirect to www (www.youtube.com) it stops working. Using the rule "Block domain & all subdomains" fixes this problem. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch eddieee95, 2 jierren lyn
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 18061786, 2 jierren lynTried to block youtube and twitch, it worked. However, when I tried blocking instagram, it doesn't. Dunno why...

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 17841607, 3 jierren lynEasy enough to use, added the websites I wanted to block, set to block in private tabs etc, closed Firefox, restarted, entered one blocked website address, it loaded fine, entered 2nd, it loaded fine, tried 3rd, same scenario, it just isn't blocking these websites.

- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch DnD Initiative Tracker, 4 jierren lynA simplistic Website Blocker. But I would love if it had an option to visit the blocked websites without having to deactivate the whole add on.
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch KirkH420, 4 jierren lynWould be better if it could actually block URLs rather than act as an internal redirect. If I wanted a redirect, that's what I would have searched for and installed.
*Update: Since the Dev is actively working to improve and add new features, I'll boost my original rating. I realize development is a process that takes time. I'll give it another try when I get some time to do so. Until then, good luck with the add-on.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
4 jierren lyn pleatstHi! Thanks for the feedback. I'm adding an option to the add-on that will allow users to disable the internal blocking page.
To clarify, the redirection happens before the request is sent to the website, so the request is still essentially blocked. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Bhante, 5 jierren lynGreat, add websites in the add-on page. Save out to backup between computers. 9/10 still a few pages to block not working. Great app, well done. Supplemented with https://hostsfileeditor.com/ to add the addresses this program won't block. Now we have a free focus time-waster blocker. Thanks!
