LeechBlock NG by James Anderson
Review by danielbr93
Rated 4 out of 5
by danielbr93, 2 years agoThe habit of opening a tab with CTRL + T, typing in "twitter" and pressing enter is still a thing, but with this extension, I might get rid of it.
Even after just a week, I notice how many more hours I save with it.
Not every hour turns into a productive one, but it's definitely better than endlessly scrolling social media or watching the 14th YouTube video for the day.
Some critcism and feedback:
1. The UI for the options is okay.
1.1 A more modern UI would be neat
1.2 Minimalistic/advanced view - making it easier and less overwhelming for people to get started
1.3 More "?" that when hovered over show explanations.
2. Pre-made examples for time and amount of hours for a certain period
2.1 Provide a short quiz "How often do you think do you waste time?" or "How much time do you want to save?" and depending on the 3-5 potential answers, the extensions sets up the most common settings.
3. Automatically suggest the most common websites to block.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Hollow, a month agoA capable and effective blocker.
Really love the option to close the tab of a blocked site before it can even load, that has definitely stopped me in my tracks from doomscrolling many times. - Rated 5 out of 5by b12o, a month ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by DnD Initiative Tracker, a month agoDoes what it advertises, without any bloat, adds or annoyance! Rare theses days.

- Rated 5 out of 5by anonymoususer, a month agoPrevents me from doomscrolling social media. Probably more annoying than you think, but specifically in a way that fits its purpose. A minor inconvenience and a beautiful guardian angel. Five stars.
- Rated 5 out of 5by G. O'Neill, a month agoInfuriatingly excellent. I set a password for the settings, put the password on a thumb drive, and hid it, and I've never been able to cheat my restrictions. Leechblock has helped me get my life back in so many ways. I have a love/hate relationship with it because it's been so helpful for me, but I still find I want my sites!! Ah!! Love it so much. Five stars.
