Own Your Time Extension

Online companies spend millions of dollars trying to keep you distracted on their sites. It's hard to stay focused on what matters in life when notifications and popups scream for your attention. Own Your Time will help give you a leg up keeping control of your browsing habits, even when Facebook wants to keep you logged on. Blacklist sites like on any other distraction blocker, but don't let the extension own your time either. You're free to visit your blocked sites whenever you want. Give a brief explanation for why you want to visit the site to discourage mindless browsing and encourage mindful internet use. This extension is in development, so feel free to suggest added features that would make your browsing experience easier to control.

Myracle H. (She/they) (ID: 00000090ee6d1d64) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/19/2022 Omg, I love this. If I put in an explanation, it lets me through! Thank you, creator, for this!

ekarron (ID: 0000000abf54391b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/20/2021 Pretty good, can't block all websites you want to block, but still a decent extension

Василий Камалтынов (ID: 000000f0d3d6fdd5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/03/2021 Hi. Maybe add to allowed list, and block all other?

Jeeyon Shim (ID: 000000507bd224fa) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/25/2021 I love this, but I have one error note: currently, the version I have does not block Twitter because the script notes it as ".twitter.com" rather than "www.twitter.com." If that could get fixed the app would be ideal! It's already helped me a lot with Facebook and other socials.

Frozen Marshmellows (ID: 000000d7c54d06f9) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/21/2020 It soo good but it would have been better if it saved all the explanations
