— stjohnmccloskey, pred 3 meseciWhat a stellar extension. Practically every possible arrangement of options is on the table; the settings take a little bit of fiddling and figuring out, but the documentation is quite good, and although I haven't needed to use it I believe the support forum is also.
The only thing I haven't seen (which would just tickle my particular ADHD brain in the right way) is having the "time limit after which to block: x minutes in every Y hours" be a hard block, and a delayed block (for 60 seconds, say) before accessing it even for those X minutes!
Overall, I'm very grateful this exists. Thank you for working on it! I think it really helps a lot of people.
Looks as though some of the one-star reviews here relate to the author's view of the world. For what it's worth, I think I'd agree with people posting such reviews that the views they attribute to this extension's author should be addressed publicly, and that we should shout the more-caring and more-loving attitude louder than anyone else can shout their less-caring and less-loving views.
Still...reviews on a firefox extension are an odd forum to try to have that conversation, and more importantly than that, I think we can all agree that views like that don't change by one-off internet conversations. Views like that only change when the people who have those views are forced by circumstances to have close respectful relationships with people who suffer because of those views.

- Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— ECreator, pred 7 uramiFinally a good extension.
Highly recommend everyone to use this instead of other alternatives, including ethical and functionality ones.
This extension better supports wildcards and regular expressions. Not only that but it has a decent documentation about that and includes multiple features like lockdown, different block sets, easy "message from yourself" without custom code, timer and statistics. That was just amazing because I was able to block many domains I wished with more advanced filters.
I believe the only things I missed was search engine results blocks, which would be quite hard to implement. That would be very useful because I usually find domains I would not like to visit due to leech and psychological damage by searching. The extension does what it promises, though, and I can't ask for more.
________________________________
*My* ethical point of view below (which is not about how the extensions work or their features):
I don't recommend other popular alternatives like uBlocklist and Block Site because of another reason: They are HEAVILY vibe coded and this is the kind of shit that ruined Software Development for many people, me included. AI-"assisted" bullshit is horrendous and just destroyed the whole career. Not only that, but between every single LLM, the developers used Claude, by Anthropic; which is the most privacy invasive popular company I've seen thus far, Google included.
That is also more concerning than other models because of how integrated it is into deepfake generation, slop coding and AI-""art"". Antropo- from greek means human and -pic is a suffix for "in such manner". That being said, the fact a company promoting a product that replaces jobs, hobbies and makes us lose our humanity is named "human-like", is just absolutely absurd. - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Uporabnik Firefoxa 20018876, pred enim dnem

Works for everything, the configuration is a little bit confusing so I don't have time limits or the thing where you get a certain amount of unblocked time every week which would be cool but that's because im too lazy to configure it and because honestly just turning it on and off alone is such a game changer I haven't really needed to sort the rest out. Thank you so much!!!!!

- Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Venkat, pred 10 dneviSuper useful.. Saving my hours from distraction. Thanks for keeping this for free!
- Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— superinfra, pred 12 dneviVery robust and effective extension!
My only issue with it is that blocking a site overnight is harder than it needs to be, since the block time range only works if the second number is larger than the first.
That means setting 23:00-5:00 doesn't work, and you have to do both 23:00-24:00 and 00:00-5:00 instead. It works fine, but it sometimes says that the page will be unblocked at midnight even though it'll be immediately blocked right after.
Thank you for making this add-on! - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Joreck, pred 15 dnevi
- Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Talos, pred 18 dneviAfter testing so many different distraction reducing apps, extensions, etc, this is the by far the best one i have found on any platform. It is incredibly detailed and customisable, with a focus mode (lockdown mode), different block sets, time based blocks, usage limit based blocking, customisable overrides (including limits on the duration and number of overrides), blocking pages, and so much more. My only wish is they turn it into an android app with similar functionality!
