Unweb is adblock for distractions. Hide never-ending feeds, related articles, and suggested videos on sites like Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter. Opt back into distractions using the 'Show' button. Lose the temptation, not the functionality.

Love this Louis... I remember you walking me through the seed of this idea many years ago! Great to see it come alive...

THIS IS INCREDIBLE! Is there a way to request more sites to have it one?

fwiw i have been doing this manually with custom adblock filters for a while. anything that reduces engagement tactics on websites is welcome my life :-)

@michell_zappa That is an extremely cool way to go about it, I've heard of a couple of people doing that. I'm hoping that by packaging essentially the same thing in a slightly better UX, it might appeal more and reach a wider audience.

@michell_zappa Also a big part of it is doing the editorial work so other people don't have to: trawling these sites to figure out which parts could/should be hidden.

@louis_barclay and keeping it updated. i remember linkedin being particularly difficult with randomized div IDs etc. is there anything you need help with?

@michell_zappa Ah, yes, you hit the nail on the head. Keeping it updated is going to be a big challenge, or even figuring out smart ways for it to not need being updated. And re: your offer to help - definitely, would love to discuss. Perhaps over a call? You could choose a good time for you in the Calendly link in my opening comment. (Which PH won't let me put here for some reason.)

Aaah! I'm rooting for this! Great idea. I would add gradients somewhere in future!

@spacegangster Thank you so much! Interesting - would love to know what you mean by gradients?

@louis_barclay I mean background gradients. Maybe some predefined color schemes. E.g. https://webgradients.com/

@spacegangster Ahh gotcha. Do you mean for the white boxes that cover hidden sections? My one worry would be about making the hidden sections look more appealing.
