Memento Mori

A productivity Chrome extension that reminds you of life's brevity while blocking distracting websites.

Are you living on borrowed time? Memento Mori isn’t just a website blocker. It’s a small reminder sitting inside your browser that quietly asks you to pay attention to your life. At the center of the extension is a simple idea: if you could see your remaining time on Earth slowly burning away, would you waste as much of it scrolling? What Memento Mori does 🕯️ Your Life as a Candle A small candle shows your estimated remaining lifespan based on real actuarial data. As time passes, the wax melts. It’s subtle, a little haunting, and surprisingly motivating. You’ll also get a short Stoic quote each day to help keep your head clear and grounded. 🚫 Block the Noise Create schedules for work, studying, or deep focus. Turn on Strict Mode if you really want discipline no editing, no cheating, no “just one more minute.” Try opening a blocked site and you’ll get a gentle reminder of why you started this in the first place. 📺 Tame YouTube Hide the home feed, Shorts, comments, autoplay anything that pulls you off track. If you want, switch YouTube to grayscale and watch how quickly the temptation disappears. 📊 See Where Your Time Goes Track how much time you save, how your focus changes day to day, and even how many days you probably have left based on your age and region. It’s not meant to scare you just to make things real. 🎯 Focus Mode Start a Pomodoro-style session, write down what you’re working on, and check off tasks as you finish. Everything stays simple and right in the popup. Your Privacy Everything your birthday, goals, stats stays on your device. No servers, no analytics, no creepy tracking. It’s your data, full stop. “The trouble is, you think you have time.” ~ Buddha If you’re tired of losing hours to distractions, Memento Mori is a reminder to use the time you have with intention. Stop drifting. Start living.
