Sakin

Simplifies instagram.com: no Reels, Following feed, stories only, daily time.

You open Instagram to see what a friend shared or reply to a message. Sakin helps you stay with that intention. Running directly on instagram.com in your browser, Sakin quietly removes Reels, Explore and algorithmic recommendations—leaving only the people you chose to follow, their stories and your messages. What you can customise • A feed without Reels — Hides the Reels navigation tab (both desktop sidebar and mobile bar), in-feed Reels shelves and /reels/ links. • Hide Explore and suggestions — Removes the Explore tab and "Suggested for you" cards woven into your feed, so you only see accounts you follow. • Hide Shopping — Clears shop links and product tags from your view. • Stories-only mode — Optionally hide the main post stream as well, keeping just the top stories bar and direct messages. • Greyscale mode — Turns photos and videos into calm monochrome tones to soften visual stimulation. • Gentle daily time reminder — Set a daily goal of 10, 15, 30 or 45 minutes. When your time is up, Sakin offers a quiet reminder instead of a hard lock, with a one-tap option to add 5 more minutes. Privacy by design Sakin collects, processes and transmits zero personal data. There are no accounts, no analytics and no tracking. Your preferences and daily timer live strictly inside your browser (chrome.storage.local), and the extension makes zero network requests.
