2024-04-18	Mark	A recent update: Required more permissions without elaborating. Switched to a shame based system which makes me feel bad about intentionally spending time using the web. The extension is no longer useful and causes picture-in-picture + background video to stop. This is not what I want and is not configurable. Uninstalling is the only option.

2024-03-17	paupowpow	I'm a long time iOS app user and was delighted to find out that one sec also exists for Firefox. It works just as well! Maybe advertise it in the app, I didn't take it for granted that there would be a Firefox add-on.
2024-03-11	Firefox user 17436540	Syncing statistics with the mobile app would make it perfect :)
2024-03-05	daizus	Useful, it increased my productivity.
2024-03-03	Firefox user 17816614	can't "block all, allow some" which makes it pointless for me
2024-02-24	Firefox user 18100108	Works so well! Serves to dissuade you from going on distracting websites, but doesn't completely prevent you if you actually need to watch a quick youtube video or look at a reddit post, so you don't end up disabling it in annoyance. Recommend the 1 second delay, perfect amount for me.
2024-02-22	Potato_Head	I stumbled upon this extension watching Ali Abdal video on time management. Despite its simplicity, it's a great extension. Just adds enough resistance to something you do automatically without any thinking. Which makes you think for a second "Do I really want to do this right now? or Is it just muscle memory and bad habits that brought me here?". Totally recommend for anyone struggling to decrease their usage for time wasting website and be more mindful on what you spend your time on. There's an app as well for those who don't know, available for both Android and iOS.
