Overview

A chrome extension to block doom scrolling and help you touch grass!

Use this extension to stop the endless scrolling on toxic social media website! After a certain amount of scrolling on Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, or TikTok, an alert will appear and the feed will *vanish* from existence. Go touch some grass. Changelog: - 0.2.0: Added popup to allow user to edit list of blocked sites Not actively maintained sorry about any outdatedness. But this is open sourced! Feel free to help contribute on GitHub! https://github.com/Zjjc123/doomscroll-blocker. I'll look at PRs once in a while.

Love it - surprisingly effective at dissuading social media use. But it needs to be updated for the X.com domain.
