ScrollBlock
Detects mindless scrolling and snaps you out of it.
ScrollBlock doesn't just hide content; it catches you when you're stuck in a mindless scrolling loop and snaps you out of it. Instead of rigid blocking, it forces a conscious decision: "Do I actually want to keep scrolling?" Features include daily time limits, PIN locks for distracting sites, and feed cleanup (hides Reels, Shorts, Explore pages). Stop opening social media for 5 minutes only to lose an hour. Works on Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, TikTok, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Threads.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I created this browser extension for people who get constantly distracted by social media while working.
Whenever you scroll on any social media platform, it actively detects the doomscrolling and intercepts you with a strong popup message. It also syncs your usage time across multiple devices in the background, ensuring the popup always shows your accurate, total time spent on social media.
It also includes:
Daily time limits for specific websites
4-digit PIN locks for sites you want to avoid completely
Feed cleanup (Reels, Shorts, Explore pages, and other addictive feeds)
Works on:
Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter/X, Reddit, Pinterest, Threads, and LinkedIn.
The goal isn't to block social media.
It's to stop opening Instagram for 5 minutes and realizing an hour disappeared.
Completely free.
