Come up for air. You opened a feed for a quick check. A few minutes later, you are 20 screens deep. Surfaced is a private Firefox extension that helps you notice endless scrolling before it turns into doomscrolling. It tracks cumulative scroll depth and shows a gentle reminder when you have gone farther than you meant to. Where it helps

Social feeds and infinite-scroll timelines
News sites with endless recommendations
Forums, long threads, and comment sections
Single-page apps with no natural stopping point

Why it feels different Surfaced is reminder-first, not blocker-first. It does not lock pages, force timers, or shame you for browsing. It adds a calm scroll-depth cue so you can notice the moment and decide what to do next. Because it tracks cumulative scroll distance, Surfaced is more useful on infinite feeds and many single-page apps than a simple page-position check. Private by design
