About this extension
Read what you've saved before browsing what you haven't. Detour gently redirects you from distracting websites to articles in your reading list — no willpower required.

How it works:
When you visit a site you've marked as distracting, Detour automatically opens an unread article instead.

Features:
• Smart redirection to saved articles
• Daily reading goals to build better habits
• Tracks when you finish reading
• Clean, minimal reading experience
• Fully customizable site list

Why Detour?
Instead of blocking distracting sites outright, Detour replaces them with something worthwhile. It’s ideal for anyone who saves articles but rarely reads them, or anyone trying to reduce time spent on digital distractions.
