About DayBrake: Doomscroll Timer & Blocker

"You've spent 45 minutes here today." DayBrake puts a time limit on the sites that pull you in, and opens every message it shows you with that line. Not this visit. Today. Most blockers just, well, block. On or off, for a whole site. DayBrake gives you rules as specific as you want: shut the LinkedIn feed and leave the messages and jobs pages open. Several rules on one site. Different limits at different times of day. Deep work sessions that lock your chosen sites outright. Most others offer one or two of those. Getting sucked in is the problem. DayBrake is the pal that taps the brakes, shows you the clock, and helps you get your day back. Most of us have no idea how long we have been somewhere, and seeing it in the moment before you add to it is usually what stops us. If focus is already a battle, with ADHD or any other kind of neurodivergence, there is even more here for you.
