LeechBlock é uma ferramenta de produtividade simples para bloquear sites que desperdiçam tempo.
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).

- This extension has saved me hours and hours from my own impulses and distracting browsing behavior. Some options can be a little difficult to follow, but after testing it out, it gets clearer. Thank you for all the work you've done over the years!
- Na'thu Nash'ath
- This is amazing, highly customizable and has almost all the types of blocking I need. Best part is grouping of sites and applying block type (password protected, time restricted, etc) based on groups. works great! takes some tweaking to get the settings just right, but it helps with my productivity!

- LeechBlock NG is easily one of the best productivity extensions I’ve used. It gives you real control over distractions by letting you block specific sites with flexible schedules and strict rules that actually work. The setup is powerful but logical, and once configured, it runs quietly without slowing the browser. I appreciate that it focuses on discipline rather than motivation—no gimmicks, just results. If you’re serious about staying focused and managing your time better, this extension is absolutely worth installing.

- Great open source project. Highly customizable blocking rules and doesn't restrict core blocking features behind paywall (strict mode, unlimited rules, etc.) It would be nice if there was a bit more documentation, particularly for the block list import from URL, but so far everything has been great.

- 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!

- Kuanysh Shurenov
- 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.
- Alparslan Çelik
- 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.
