It's decent but really needs a darkmode for evening browsing. Can't look at it after sunset.

Works as specified. Doesn't do anything more than advertised, which is a good feature in a web blocker. I rarely get frustrated at it, which is probably the highest praise I can give a web blocker.

It's really good but it lacks an option to reenable site blocking after choosing 24h release. I often have to check stuff on Facebook for 15-20 min a day but the extention makes it possible to browse it afterwards for 24h - a change here would be nice.

I would have given five stars, but for some time the extension stopped working. Previously, it only launched when the page was first opened. Now it also launches after refreshing or using the "open in new tab" option, or even after opening in the same tab. Sometimes it also doesn't launch at all, or it launches at random times (such as when I click on a youtube video to play it). It is no longer functional for me.

Hi Dominik! So sorry for the delayed response. Our first suggestion would be to try uninstalling and reinstalling the extension. If you are still having trouble please email our team at support@freedom.to so that we can collect some more details. Thank you!

Works well. It would be better if it didn't affect the currently playing song on youtube when I enable pause.

Hello, I really like this feature. However, instead of making a list of distracting sites to pause on, I wish we could pause for every website other than a list of accepted sites. I'm finding it much too difficult to input a list of all of the sites I mindlessly browse on verses the ones I use all the time and are productive on. When it is the internet versus me, I pretty much lose all the time. lol. This is similar to website extensions feature. Thank you.

Does what it says.. However I would like to see the option to apply this pause on all websites. Also, option to add this on all pages. Allow user to specify exception URLs though. Thanks. Regular expression on URLs would be great too.
