Get back to work.

You type in the domains that steal your day. When you try to go there, you don't: you get one of these 150 lines staring back at you.

Blocking is the easy part.

Anyone can block a website. What actually changes something is what you read when you try to open it.

  • Close the tab.
  • While you hesitate, someone else is closing a client.
  • You're not tired. You're distracted.
  • Success is boring. This is fun. That's why you lose.
  • The boring ones win. Every single time.
  • Every scroll of yours is a point for someone else.
  • Nothing gets built on this page.
  • If it mattered, you wouldn't have blocked it.
  • Your attention is the product. You know it and you came anyway.

Install

Three steps, one minute.

It is not in the Chrome Web Store yet, so you install it by hand. Easier than it sounds.

  1. 01

    Download and unzip

    Grab the file and unzip it wherever you want to keep it. That folder stays there: Chrome reads it on every launch.

  2. 02

    Open chrome://extensions

    Paste that into the address bar and turn on Developer mode, top right.

  3. 03

    Load unpacked

    Click the button, pick the folder and that is it. Then type the domains you want blocked in the extension panel.

It is free and it will stay free.

I wrote it for myself on a day I could not focus. If it saves you an afternoon, you can buy me a coffee. If not, keep it anyway.
