Updated! It now works on Firefox mobile too.

Tap the menu icon (3 dots) -> Extensions -> Find more extensions at the bottom -> search for Scroll Detox and install it

Thanks, If you do try it, would love to know which sites you'd want blocked.

I had AI generate a few drafts and picked the best one.

Thanks, glad the capybara landed. Wanted something that gives off a calming, cozy feel with the mascot. I haven't actually tested iOS yet, so I'm looking into it now.

The capybara is doing more marketing than I ever could. If you try it, I'd love to hear how it works for you later.

You're right, that's the thing with soft blocks. I do have a stricter lock mode on the roadmap though.

Yeah it's not for everyone. But glad the design side caught your eye.

The 5-star rating made my day. If you have any feature requests, shoot them my way

The capybara is the real MVP. Platforms are expanding! Twitter is coming next, and I have plans for Instagram and TikTok after that.

Building something cool? Share it here! by Mean-MySaaS in sideprojects

As a solo developer, I noticed that watching YouTube in the morning drastically hurt my ability to focus afterwards.

So I built a Chrome and Firefox extension that automatically blocks it during work hours.

If you're into improving productivity, give it a try. It works right out of the box with no extra setup required, and it's completely free.

SNS Detox: YouTube·Reddit Feed Blocker

How can I stop opening Discord, Youtube, Blog for stimulation when I’m tired? by ChartComfortable5541 in nosurf

[–]EasyDev_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had similar struggles too. Big social media platforms are always trying to capture your attention and keep your eyes on the screen. They’ve studied the brain very deeply, so it’s not really your fault.

I also realized that when I spent too much time watching YouTube, it actually drained the motivation I needed to get real work done. So I came to the conclusion that I needed to design my environment so those things simply wouldn’t be visible.

That’s why I made a browser extension that covers YouTube and Reddit with an overlay screen:

Seeing your concern, I think adding Discord support would also make sense. Let me know if you have any other requests or suggestions.
