NEARLY PERFECT. Been using it for multiple months now and it helps me from mindlessly opening a new tab. I have two suggestions. First making it so there's an option to completely block you from a site until you turn off the extension. Second, making it possible to change how long you can be on a website. I personally will just start scrolling then I would see that it's been 7 mins and then get back to work. I would like to have the option to make the 10 mins into 5 or 3 mins. I love this software. Truly amazing! :)
