The 20s Rule - Break Bad Habbits wót Oliver Brodersen

The 20s Rule helps you break mindless browsing habits by applying a proven psychological principle. It introduces a gentle 20-second pause before distracting sites load, giving you a moment to make a conscious choice instead of acting on impulse.

This extension is more than a simple blocker; it’s a comprehensive tool to help you redesign your digital environment for focus and well-being.

How It Works
The core functionality is simple yet powerful:
1. Add Friction: You create a list of websites that you tend to visit out of habit.
2. Interrupt Autopilot: Before the site loads, a 20-second pause appears, breaking the subconscious habit loop.
3. Reclaim Your Choice: During the pause, you can consciously decide if visiting the site aligns with your intentions.

Turn Pauses into Progress with The Nudge System
Instead of a blank screen, your 20-second pause is filled with an actionable micro-habit to improve your well-being. You can customize which categories of "nudges" you see:
* Physical Resets (e.g., posture checks, eye strain relief)
* Mindful Moments
* Focused Actions & Planning
* Clearing Your Environment
* Goal Alignment & Kind Connection

Choose Your Philosophy: Focus or Balance
The 20s Rule adapts to your lifestyle with two distinct modes:

Focus Mode: For Total Commitment
For when you're all in. This mode disables all exceptions—no skips, pauses, or schedules are allowed. It helps you build a daily streak of intentional browsing, with a counter to track and celebrate your progress.

Balanced Mode: For Power & Flexibility
This mode gives you access to practical tools for when life requires exceptions:
* Active Hours: A powerful scheduler for your work-life balance. Set the extension to be active only during specific hours and days (e.g., 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday).
* Daily Skips: Grant yourself a limited number of skips per day for times when you genuinely need immediate access to a blocked site.
* Quick Pause: Temporarily pause the entire extension for 15 minutes with a single click.
