Escape the Algorithm - Social Feed Blocker Extension

Regain control of your time online; don't let sophisticated algorithms control you.

⚡️In 30 seconds, we'll save you countless hours of scrolling and autoplaying content that you don't need or want so that YOU can be the sophisticated one online and use the internet the way it's supposed to be used.

🚫 We block the main feed, stop autoplay, and hide all algorithmically generated content on YouTube, 𝕏/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more for a super simple way to stop scrolling away your days and regain your focus and attention on the internet. No more distracting sidebar or end screen suggested videos — just the stuff you intended to see in the first place.

🔒 Your privacy also is crucial to us, so we don't store any of your data; we will request your email address on signup just to keep you updated with product updates and share occasional new products with you that I'm building that make our time online something that only impacts our lives positively.

🧠 Let's make the internet what it's supposed to be: a resource for learning and entertainment that makes us smarter and happier!
