LeechBlock NG
Description from store

LeechBlock NG (Next Generation) is a simple free productivity tool designed to block those time-wasting sites that can suck the life out of your working day. (You know: the ones that rhyme with 'Blue Cube', 'Space Hook', 'Sticky Media', 'Quitter', and the like.) All you need to do is specify which sites to block and when to block them.

You can specify up to 30 sets of sites to block, with different times and days for each set. You can block sites within fixed time periods (e.g., between 9am and 5pm), after a time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour), or with a combination of time periods and time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour between 9am and 5pm).

Additional features:

• Lockdown: Block sites immediately for a specified duration.
• Access control: Set a password or random access code for the options page, to slow you down in moments of weakness!
• Delaying: Set a countdown to delay access to sites instead of completely blocking them.
• Wildcards: Block a range of sites (e.g., *.somesite.com).
• Exceptions: Whitelist sites you don't want to be blocked (e.g., +allowedsite.com).

Great
chivalrous expert
This is an ancient plugin, and it's difficult to even understand how it saves settings. One of the options is "Enter the time periods within which to block these sites (optional):" However, when you don't select this parameter (and choose "all day"), you'll find that it simply doesn't work.

Love this extension! Totally saves me time and helps me maintain focus. I give myself enough time for the fun distractions that I enjoy, but now there are limits to make sure I don't waste too many minutes or hours unintentionally. Great upgrade for quality of life!

It is very good site blocking extension. I've tried another ones before, but they were with a lot od ads and not so convenient. Simple and good. 10 out of 5.
Hara Daniel
Great site but make it so admins can access sites that are blocked with a password.

Thank you for making me write a review for a Chrome extension for the first time in my life. This extension is surprisingly customizable if you want a smart way to spend less time on certain websites. Some of the customizations are: -Forcing yourself to enter a 128 character password in case, one day, you try to go sneaky and circumvent the block that you've set for yourself. -Setting a countdown ("Delaying" page in the Settings) instead of directly blocking the list of websites. This might not seem huge but it is huge. To make it annoying to open up 'those' websites is a plus.
Sebastian Orue
this is great for when you want to actually focus. Great work!! Lima, Peru.
Jeff Wickham
I love the delay feature! Many times I click on YouTube or Facebook or other such sites, and they are so full of interesting videos that before I know it, I have wasted an hour or more. This delay before even opening the site gives time to actually think, before mindlessly clicking on something out of habit.
Anton
Amazing. This is what i've been searching for. Very well made extension. Thank you 🙏
Shams Zareef

There is a small a learning curve to set up Leechblock to your own preferences, but any downside is offset by its capability and price.

Nice! helps me focus on studies

amazing app, frankly. just sad that it doesnt have an override security key like stayfree did to make it harder to override
Marcus Reid
First Website blocking extension I tried that allows multiple blocking conditions and exceptions. It has helped me cut down on YouTube watching while still permitting channels that are educational or helpful.
Baris Balli

Jeffrey Xu
dated design but it works
Brandon Sun
Great, simple extension to use
Aditi Pittampally
love it, easy to use and highly effective. one thing I would change is in the message you write to yourself, I would want the text to be bigger and easier to see. other than that, amazing
