Come up for air. You opened a long page for a quick check. A few minutes later, you are 20 screens deep. Surfaced is a private browser extension that helps you notice endless scrolling before it turns into doomscrolling. It tracks signed, 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 built around reminders, not blocks. 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 downward movement adds depth and upward movement subtracts it, Surfaced's net cumulative scroll depth is more useful on infinite feeds and many single-page apps than a simple page-position check. Private by design

Persistent settings stay in your browser in browser.storage.local; the temporary pause stays in browser.storage.session. Surfaced does not use sync storage, and local import/export files are never uploaded. Available in English and Polish.
