It’s honestly beneficial for my mental health to have things like this, especially now when I’m spending lots of time online. Thank you!

Hi PH! I'm the maker of Unweb, adblock for distractions. If you get sucked in easily by things like feeds, suggested articles, and related videos when you visit a site like Facebook, YouTube, Reddit or Twitter, Unweb's for you. Unweb hides those distractions behind a white box by default. There's a button so you can opt into a distraction when you need it — so you don't lose any functionality of the site at all. But this way, the distraction isn't there to lure you in from the start. I'm building Unweb because I want you - not the designers of distractions - to decide how you interact with the most popular sites on the internet. Previously I built Nudge, a 5-star Chrome extension with over 2,000 WAU that helps you use the internet less. I would love to hear your feedback on Unweb, so leave a comment below! Or, if you'd like to schedule a time to chat: https://calendly.com/louis-barclay Cheers, Louis

I'd ❤️ for this to be available to other browsers as well! There are so many browser extensions that are Chrome-only. 😭

@sarahsemark Yup that is totally fair. It is 100% in my sights to make it for other browsers once I've shown people want it on Chrome. In fact, I tested it on Firefox and it worked pretty well already. Which browser do you use?

I find distracting unsolicited material trying to capture my attention very irritating and I am sure that it influences my mood and diminishes my output so this is very welcome thanks!

This is looking fantastic Louis! I look forwarding to seeing how you develop this. I've emailed you some feedback. I think for you one downside to Product Hunt is the related products which has suggested to me an impressive looking alternative, but I hope they inspire you.

@ianmayman Thanks so much Ian! Got your feedback over email, really appreciate it. Which particular alternative are you thinking of? UnDistracted?

@louis_barclay Yes, I've not heard of that one before. I think it has a better UI but Unweb I think hides more. I especially like their automatic redirection feature that I can set to a more productive website.

This is awesome, congrats Louis, I love your products, they really make me in control of what I watch or see on the Internet, and saved me thousands of hours I ended up spending on more purposeful things. Keep it up, and long live Unweb!
