Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 15020424, 5 years agoThis add on is light and very feature rich. I love having multiple types of block categories, which I use to either block permanently, whitelist only on certain days, or to allow overrides which are very helpful. Overrides are awesome, for example, if the answer you're looking for happens to be on reddit or youtube, which happen to be two of the biggest timesink websites out there. I think there could be finer grained control over the blocking of date and time, but its more than sufficient for how I'm using it. I would highly recommend this addon to anyone who wants take back control of their attention from tech giants and their algorithms.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Livarevie, 3 days agoIt is pretty good! It does what it says it does and it's very easy to use once you understand it. My favourite part is how you can block a site but make only a specific part of the site unblocked. It does allow a lot of options. :>

(actually not written by me, but my dad... :o) - Rated 5 out of 5by Murly, 22 days agoThis extension helped me organise days better. I tend to forget how to organise my time, so I block the sites I usually lose time on when I know I should do something else.
The only thing I wished was there that isn't is an off button for certain blocks. You can alway override, but it's redundant and sometimes inconvenient. I wish I could store a block set and only use it when I need it instead of having of overriding it or deleting it and redoing it each time.
Excluding this nitpick, everithing is as great as it could be.Developer response
posted 22 days agoThanks for the review! Perhaps the lockdown feature provides the functionality you desire? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17886352, 22 days ago
