Unlike blockers that lock you out, Lucid interrupts the moment you open a distracting site on autopilot. It shows a calming overlay with how many times you've visited that site today and suggests a quick reset — drink water, stretch, take a breath. Awareness over force. You stay in control. Works on YouTube, Reddit, TikTok, Twitter and more. Focus Mode coming soon for timed deep work sessions.

Hey everyone — I'm the founder of Lucid. I built this because I kept opening YouTube and Reddit on autopilot while trying to study, and every blocker I tried was either too strict or too easy to ignore.
Lucid takes a different approach — instead of locking you out, it creates a moment of pause right when you open a distracting site unconsciously. A calm overlay, a quick reset activity, and you decide what happens next.
It's been live for about six weeks with 100+ installs and I'm actively building based on user feedback. Focus Mode with timed deep work sessions is shipping soon.
Would love honest feedback from anyone who tries it — what works, what doesn't, what you wish it did differently.

The nudge concept is way more sustainable than hard blockers, glad to see someone take that approach. One thing I'd love is the ability to log how I'm actually feeling when I get redirected, so over time I can spot patterns like boredom in the afternoon pulling me toward Twitter. That kind of insight could make the whole thing even more useful.

the autopilot interrupt idea is really smart, way better than just blocking stuff outright. one thing that would make it even more useful for me is if you could set a personal limit like maybe 3 visits a day before the overlay actually blocks the site completely, basically a soft warning that becomes a hard stop after you blow past your own goal

That overlay showing today's visit count before you slip into a scroll hole is such a smart nudge. Way more useful than a hard block that just makes you mad and hunt for the bypass.
