by melat0nin, 3 years agoGreat idea and execution, though the intentional switching is sometimes a little glitchy.
It would be good if in addition to the deep breath, there was also some additional, dynamic friction introduced. For example, the buttons ('I do not want to visit X' / 'I want to visit X') could shift position to a different corner of the screen each time the extension is displayed, in order to actively engage the user at the point of making the choice. As it is, I find that already I am in the habit of just waiting the 5 seconds then automatically clicking the 'I want to visit X' button, which somewhat undermines the goal of the extension.
This is my problem, of course, but adding a little extra, dynamic friction of this kind to the interstitial page after the breath would strengthen the question of whether I *really* want to visit the website -- and thus enhance the value of the extension.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 19073294, 2 months agoDoesn't remember choices made when returning to a tab at a later time. Sometimes bugs out when refreshing a tab, and prompts the speed bump even when you already chose to continue mere seconds ago. It offers estimates on how much time you have saved using the app which are based on... well, i guess 'bro trust me'.
Few customization options, and that for an app that offers a paid version.
Just get LeechBlock. It's free, and has much more options.Developer response

Did you try out the "intentional website switching" feature of one sec?
This is designed as you described:
When unlocking a website & leaving it again for a specified time interval, you’ll be able to return without an additional intervention.
Hope that helps! - Rated 5 out of 5by Isaac, 2 months agoThis add-on has really helped me to stay more forcused by adding an obsicle to accessing social media, while not fully disallowing it, for situations where it is necessary to access it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Neko_Alan, 4 months agoI bought the permanent premium for this in an impulse from a video recommendation i saw from Ali Abdaal, and it wasn't that good. It got far better with the new intermissions they've added recently. It helps me control the use of those websites that hook me up for hours quite well like youtube, works like a charm.
