Softspot: Blur Distractions, Hide Feeds & Focus

Blur any part of any website: feeds, sidebars, comments. Still there if you need it, but behind a deliberate pause. Gentle focus.

Blockers are all-or-nothing. Distractible brains need something gentler. Softspot lets you point at anything on any website and blur it. The content stays exactly where it was, just out of your attention's reach. Want to see it anyway? Hold the peek button for a moment. That tiny pause is usually all it takes to remember what you actually came for. HOW IT WORKS 1. Press Alt+B on any website (or click the Softspot icon) 2. Click the thing that distracts you 3. Done. It stays blurred, on every visit, until you say otherwise Need the content after all? Hover the blur and hold the peek button. It reveals for a few seconds, then gently fades back. The pause is the point: long enough to interrupt autopilot, short enough to never feel punished. READY-MADE RULES Some pages are harder to tame than others, so Softspot ships with prepared blur rules for a handful of the busiest sites. Switch them on with one click from the toolbar, then adjust or remove any of them however you like. PRIVACY, FOR REAL Softspot runs entirely in your browser. No account. No tracking. No analytics. It only gets access to a site when YOU choose to blur something on it. Most extensions ask for access to every website at install; Softspot never does. BUILT FOR DISTRACTIBLE BRAINS Made with ADHD in mind, without shame or lockouts. Nothing is forbidden, nothing is deleted. The feed is still there if you truly need it. It just costs a deliberate moment, and that moment belongs to you. FREE AND PRO Free: unlimited blurs on up to 2 sites. Pro ($4.99, one time): every site, adjustable peek timing, rule backup. Yours forever. No subscription. WHY BLUR INSTEAD OF BLOCK? Blocking breaks pages and invites workarounds; you just open another browser. A blur keeps the page intact and working. It removes the pull of the content without pretending it doesn't exist. Softer, and for many of us, far more effective.
