2024-12-10 | joshua | incredibly simple idea, incredibly effective. whenever i open social media to scroll for a few seconds, close it again without seeing anything entertaining or fulfilling only to open it again and repeat it is incredibly irritating and makes me hate myself for doing it. one sec lets me take a breath and realize that there probably isnt any good reason to do so and lets me go do something which will actually make me happy. wonderful extension, could not reccomend more | |

2024-11-25 | Julien Sabotage | A perfect solution to catch yourself when your habits or auto-pilot kicks in. Doesn't outright block it, so if there is a relevant link to a reddit thread or similar it just adds a little loading time. But for the habitual visits to social media sites it's brilliant, and more often than I realize I just wrote the address to the site on autopilot but had no real interest in visiting it. | |

2024-11-05 | Firefox user 18671044 | I love it, helps a lot, I like that it has no menu, so it has to many steps to turn off automaticly. Could you add a feature to write the reasons why you wanted to enter the app you blocked? Keep going ❤❤❤. | |

2024-10-24 | Firefox user 16725907 | Does a good job making me stop and think before going to social media sites, but without just completely blocking them. I put the time at 20 seconds, and it is just enough that it makes me change my mind about going to sites, unless I have an actual thing I want to do there. | |
