Overview

LeechBlock is a simple productivity tool designed to block those time-wasting sites that can suck the life out of your working day.

LeechBlock NG (Next Generation) is a simple free productivity tool designed to block those time-wasting sites that can suck the life out of your working day. (You know: the ones that rhyme with 'Blue Cube', 'Space Hook', 'Sticky Media', 'Quitter', and the like.) All you need to do is specify which sites to block and when to block them. You can specify up to 30 sets of sites to block, with different times and days for each set. You can block sites within fixed time periods (e.g., between 9am and 5pm), after a time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour), or with a combination of time periods and time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour between 9am and 5pm). Additional features: • Lockdown: Block sites immediately for a specified duration. • Access control: Set a password or random access code for the options page, to slow you down in moments of weakness! • Delaying: Set a countdown to delay access to sites instead of completely blocking them. • Wildcards: Block a range of sites (e.g., *.somesite.com). • Exceptions: Whitelist sites you don't want to be blocked (e.g., +allowedsite.com).

It has really helped me a lot. It can be a bit difficult to use at first, but it's easy and works real well once you understand. The keyword blocking is especially very useful for me. Thanks a lot.

This is the website blocker I've been hoping existed for years! Exactly the right features and level of control, with a way to temporarily set exceptions when needed. I have reflexively doomscrolled the news when bored or stressed for years. This plugin interrupts that cycle for me, but also lets me intentionally check my blocked news sites if I learn something worth my immediate attention happens in the world. I'm seeing big improvements in my habit!
