Sordino - Soft Website Blocker for Focus

Soft-block distracting websites with psychological friction, not force.

Like a trumpet mute that softens without silencing, Sordino creates gentle resistance to distraction rather than hard blocks you'll just disable. The goal isn't to cage you. It's to create a moment of mindfulness before you mindlessly scroll.
