- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14734657, 6 years agoI put this on for Reddit, Twitter and Youtube with 5 minute allowances every 4 hours. Works like a charm and has helped me really cut down on time spent
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14730754, 6 years agoI'm productive now! though i wish you could set a 16 character random password for override, because i feel 32 is a bit too long
- Rated 4 out of 5by 11, 6 years agoIn firefox 66.0.2 I cannot update settings with the option " save & close " ... For some reason once has been closed up I can still joining blocked sites ... Can you actually check if this is happening ? I would appreciate if can be fixed up... Great add-on by the way. I would appreciate if you can answer me, thanks!

Thanks for your VERY reactive answer <3
Meanwhile, I found a trick that is even better in my case ; I set it up on 2 minutes every 15 minutes, and does not turn off the page (so if I stay with my work group and do not change conversation, I can still work.
Omg, I REALLY DO love your add-on !! Wish I could give more stars !!

Does the job but a bit too perfectly as I set it up. I needed to stop Facebook. Well, it's done, and I'm glad with that.
But I need facebook/messages (Messenger) to keep working with some student groups ; is there a way to add some exceptions?
Thanks!

posted 6 years agoYes, you can add exceptions: https://www.proginosko.com/leechblock/faq/exceptions/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14663601, 6 years agoMuch needed! Should be an inbuilt feature in the browsers :D. I love the "Block Set" feature, thereby I can categorize my distraction websites and set different block times for each set.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14659692, 6 years agoProbably a bug, but this extension slows firefox down to a crawl on Kubuntu 18.04 (up to date as of 02/25/19). Loading URL webpages takes significantly longer.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13510844, 6 years agoVery useful. Has all the features you would want from such an extension. Really improves productivity!
Developer is also very helpful and quick to respond to questions! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14650496, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14649934, 6 years agoThis thing is great if you have attention issues like me and love to switch to time wasting pages. Does what its supposed to do. Now if only I could make myself do that also.
- Rated 5 out of 5by luuf, 6 years agoThis is a fantastic blocker, where I can specify precisely what I want! The only thing that I'd wish for is more than 6 block-sets, so that I can be even more specific about what I want to do with each site.
