About Doom Journal
Journal before you doom scroll.
Doom Journal intercepts Twitter/X and asks you to journal for 1, 3, or 5 minutes before you can access the site. Think of it as a mindfulness speed bump for your doom scrolling habit.
HOW IT WORKS
• Visit Twitter or X → get redirected to a calm writing page
• Pick your duration (1, 3, or 5 minutes)
• Write whatever's on your mind — timer only counts while you're typing
• Complete your entry → get a pass to Twitter (configurable 1-60 min)
• Your entry is saved locally, always available
FEATURES
✓ Distraction-free dark mode writing interface
✓ Active typing timer — pauses when you stop, nudges you to keep going
✓ Auto-continues your last entry (or start fresh with "+ new entry")
✓ All entries stored locally in your browser
✓ Export anytime as Markdown or JSON ✓ Stats: total entries, time written, streak ✓ Toggle on/off, adjust pass duration
