šŸŽ‰šŸŽ‰šŸŽ‰ Hi Product Hunters šŸ‘‹ !! This is my project that solves my own problem šŸš€ šŸ¤” Problem Sometimes I just have no idea how I can go on reading the news (even something like HackerNews that should be a good source of interesting information šŸ™‚) for hours without really producing anything worthwhile. It's going to be interesting to see what happens if I block all these sources for a while. šŸ’” Solution I made my own Chrome Extension. I name it Focus Dude!!! šŸ”„. It has everything I need šŸŒˆ ; āœ… Block a predefined list of distracting websites (Facebook, Twitter, HackerNews...) āœ… Motivating shitty quotes šŸ˜‚ for you to get back to work šŸ’Ŗ āœ… Regex support āœ… By definition, it is a simple extension I hope you like it and solve your own problem too !!! I also write āœļø a blog post on why I build this simple thing šŸ˜‰; https://asyrafff.com/focus-dude/ The chrome extension version is already published !!! https://chrome.google.com/websto...

@cn__katie Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. I already submit the extension, but it's still pending review. That's why I share it through Github for installation. You can chat with me on Twitter to setup the extension fastly https://twitter.com/asyr0f

Hey @cn__katie !!! The extension is already published šŸ„³. Here is the link https://chrome.google.com/websto... You need to read my blog on why I don't do the OFF button (to break the bad habit) simply copy the listed website and paste it to the notes app to deactivate the extension. Happy to help you focus on your work :p

@asyr0f Oh cool! It's magic! Installed! Now I am concentrated on working šŸ˜‡

This is great! BlockSite has been severely limiting features and getting annoying with pop-ups recently so this is good timing to switch
