Block Site for 10 Minutes: Stop Doomscrolling

Block Site for 10 Minutes — the website blocker that stops doomscrolling You know the spiral. You open one video, or one thread, and twenty minutes are gone. This site blocker puts a stop sign in front of that moment: two clicks, and the distracting website you're on is blocked — for 10, 30, or 60 minutes. Works on any distracting website If website is open in a tab, you can block it. Blocking a site covers its subdomains too. Two clicks, zero typing Click the icon on the site you want to escape. The domain is already filled in — it's read from the tab you're on, so there's nothing to type and no blocklist to configure. Click "Block youtube.com — for 10 minutes," and the tab turns into a countdown timer. Need a longer focus session? 30 minutes and 60 minutes sit right below it. Every duration is a single click. A calm countdown, not an error page While a website is blocked, every visit to it lands on a full-page countdown timer instead. The page paces a 4-second box-breathing cycle while you wait: inhale, hold, exhale, hold, with a ring that expands and contracts in time. The wait does something for you instead of just being a wait. No early unblock. That's the point. Most website blockers have a loophole. This one doesn't: there is no "just this once" button. Closing the popup doesn't help. Closing the tab doesn't help. Restarting Chrome doesn't help — blocks are stored against an absolute expiry time and are still there when the browser comes back. A block you can undo on impulse isn't a block. It's a suggestion. +10 when you genuinely need longer The popup lists every blocked site with the time left on each. Every entry has a +10 button that adds ten more minutes, up to a 60-minute cap. Extending a block is one click. Ending one early isn't an option. It unblocks itself At 0:00 the block lifts on its own and sends you straight back to the site. Nothing to undo, nothing to clean up, nothing to remember. Good for - Stopping doomscrolling the moment you catch yourself doing it. - The "just one video" moment, before it becomes an hour. - The reflex tab-open you don't even notice yourself doing. - Focus, study, and deep-work sessions — beat procrastination on a specific task without renegotiating with yourself every few minutes. - Anyone who's bounced off site blockers that ask for schedules, categories, and accounts before they'll block anything at all.
