LeechBlock NG par James Anderson
Avis de Rogue Art
Noté 5 sur 5
par Rogue Art, il y a 5 ansOne of the best addons I have ever used--probably would miss this as much, if not more than an adblocker. It's very effective at blocking distracting sites and the impact on my daily life has been significant.
As far as impact on the browser, LeechBlock itself uses very little RAM and CPU as an addon and it works very quickly (no delay in intercepting) in blocking websites. I also like that it just sits there in its little corner in my browser--no random alerts asking you to download another addon/write a review, ads, etc. like some addons.
The choice of features are excellent--being able to use wildcards to block the distracting pages of a website and allowing the productive parts is genius. The override and delaying feature is pretty smart too. I've used a good mix of all these features in the last few months that I've been using the addon. My favorite one is probably the "immediately block when conditions are met" since it just forces me to get off of social media and other distracting websites unlike other blockers that only block new instances of a website.
Overall, this is a very useful and very interesting productivity tool. It's unreal to see an addon of this quality being produced for free and I'm glad that it has all the features and customization that it has. It's definitely achieved its goal as a productivity tool and has easily cut my time on distracting sites.

- Noté 4 sur 5par Jebach, il y a 18 joursExcellent addon. Here's what would be really great if it was added. An option to use a override on the blocked page, so don't have to go through the addon menu. Pretty simple QoL improvement which should also discourage the user from changing other addon settings once out of set overrides.

- Noté 5 sur 5par courtbee, il y a un moisI love this add-on, it's helped me walk away from my laptop instead of wasting time scrolling websites like Pinterest for hours. It's also helped me with impulsive purchasing by putting a timed block on sites so I can 'window shop' for 5 minutes but then the site is blocked for 30 mins with a message on the block page I wrote myself saying "stop shopping, you're already in debt" and that 30 minute period is enough time for me to realize I don't really need anything I had added to my cart and alleviates the guilt/regret and shame of a package showing up a few days later full of shiny new objects that will just add to the clutter in my house that I'm trying to streamline to sell right now. I would recommend this site to anybody who struggles with impulse control or time blindness. The ability to add a message in your own words is so incredibly helpful too and is helping me refocus my easily distracted ADHD brain on tasks I need to be doing instead of chasing easy dopamine online. I've also added permanent blocks on sites I've shopped on that have resulted in unexpected additional fees like customs/brokerage charges that most companies include in their shipping charges these days. So many ways to leverage it to improve your mental and financial well being.
