Hey Product Hunt I built AntiRot because I kept "winning" against every blocker I tried — snooze the timer, disable the block, five minutes turns into an hour. The problem wasn't awareness, it was that undoing a block took zero effort. So instead of a countdown, AntiRot puts a real friction challenge between you and the blocked app or site — a breathing reset, a quick math problem, a journal prompt, or push-ups. You can still get in, but you have to actually want it enough to do the work. Along the way I added group-based rules (so you're not configuring every app one by one), strict mode for people who want harder anti-bypass options, and micro-blocking to catch short-form video loops inside apps you still need for messages. Would love feedback on the friction challenges — which ones actually stop you, and which ones you just power through.
