Smooth Surfer

Filter distracting feeds, add loading delays to habitual sites, and share pinned tabs across Chrome windows.

Smooth Surfer makes the web a little less sticky. Cleaner feeds Hide recommendations, Shorts, ads, trends, and engagement counts on YouTube, X, Reddit, Substack, and Hacker News. Turn each one on or off per site. Filter posts with your own rules Describe what you don't want to see in plain English, and Smooth Surfer hides matching posts. Use Claude with your own Anthropic API key, or Chrome's on-device model. Check each hidden post as a right or wrong call, then improve your rules from your answers. A pause before habit sites Distracting sites open behind a short countdown that grows each time you visit that day. It's on for the built-in sites by default, and you can add any other. Pinned tabs in every window Pin a tab with Cmd+Shift+P (Alt+P on Windows/Linux) and it appears in every Chrome window. Pins stay at their saved page, and closing one brings it back instead of losing it. Everything works as soon as you install it, and every setting explains itself. No account, no analytics, and no Smooth Surfer servers. Open source: https://github.com/nishu-builder/smooth-surfer
