- Rated 5 out of 5by KL, 5 years agothank you, you help me block the reflex action of checking facebook. yes i block FB, and i feel free.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Marijn Kok, 5 years agoExcellent if you're quickly distracted like me. (You don't have to wonder why I'm writing this review...) You can easily turn off the extension, but that's not the point if you install this voluntarily. Now back to work!

- Rated 5 out of 5by derpherp, 5 years agoWhenever my mind wanders during work, I almost unconsciously check my email or open reddit. LeechBlock helps eliminate this bad habit.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Najeed, 5 years agoSimply blocks all distractions given you have a bit of discipline. I recently got depressed because of reading news daily. I blocked all related pages on my PC and my Android phone. It just works, but might need a slight learning curve.
- Rated 5 out of 5by sim, 5 years agoOne of the best extensions you will ever install. Simple and easy to use, it's by far the best browser blocking add-on out there. Even just a 30 second time-out (you can chose the time) before letting you waste time on Twitter or wherever, is enough for you to dosconnect from mindless-browsing-brain and make a conscious choice about whether that is really what you need to do. Most of the time it isn't and you will close that tab immediately, but when you really do need to go to a time-suck site, you still can without too much interruption.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13760906, 5 years agoThis is great. I can use lots of customization.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14210273, 5 years agoIs there any way to get a dark background for the block page??
- Rated 5 out of 5by Woov, 5 years agoA game changer for productivity. It's surprisingly robust, and only a little buggy! But that's OK considering that the extension is FREE and without ads. Give yourself some times to thoroughly inspect all the options and figure out how you can use them. You might think something isn't working, but maybe you haven't looked over your settings well? This feels more like a tool than an extension, which is fantastic and worth it for anybody who does serious work on their PCs.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15289832, 5 years agoIt was working amazing till today, when it gave me access to a blocked site again(I generally tried to open the site when I got distracted, saw that leechblock blocked it, and went back to working.). I went into lockdown and manually locked down for 100 hours and it locked the site down again. I don't know how it gave me access to that site though.
