- Rated 5 out of 5by Emanuele Dalla Torre, 7 years agoFully controllable website filter with timer. I use it to prevent myself from wasting time on FB, news channells, etc, during productive time. Emanuele

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13627948, 7 years agoBest addon of its kind, almost single-handedly made me switch back to Firefox when trying other browsers
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12514547, 7 years agoI really love this add-on. Not only functionally blocking your procrastination sites to avoid unlimited scrolling, it also shows beautiful UI of redirect page. I really love how they display the font of LeechBlock. Love it!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Janek, 7 years agoGreat extension. You can defined detailed blocking rules in simple UI.
For those and abusing blocking rules:
- set up blocking rules to sites you do not want to visit
- set up "random 64 chars random password"
These way you may prefer to type it in instead of uninstalling. During typing, you may reconsider abusing your resolution. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13612569, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13594938, 7 years agoIt allowed me to get A's on my finals, that in itself is worth 5-stars. Thank you so much!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13588518, 7 years agoShould trigger a refresh when the time on a page runs out! Right now it allows you to stay on the page after the timer gets to 0.
Nevermind! It works greatDeveloper response
posted 7 years agoIf you want that behavior, select the option "Actively block pages on these sites once time period is entered or time limit is exceeded". - Rated 5 out of 5by YK, 7 years agoWorks well with lots of options to customize. I like the option to show the countdown clock, too.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13585095, 7 years agoGreat addon, but is it possible to add an option to move the countdown timer to somewhere outside of the web page? Say, within the toolbar button, or the options page. I want to limit my browsing to a few hours a day, and I don't want the timer to be visible on the page if I only need to check it infrequently, but as far as I'm aware it's not possible at all to find my time remaining if I leave the timer disabled. Other than that it does everything I need.

posted 7 years agoWhen I get around to adding the statistics page, that will provide another way to see the time left for a block set. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13584721, 7 years agoDespite being a bit spartan, leechblock is a good app for blocking websites that I waste way too much time on. I also tried the delay feature but I don't like it as much (maybe because I am really impatient). I do wish that it was more featured though. I use the StayFocusd extension on Chrome, and it has quite a few more features.
