- (2025-09-07) R R: Most extensions are guilty of bloatware, more stuff than you'll ever need so they can justify trying to charge you money for it. But this extension has the exact opposite. No instructions that I can find. There's simply a small pull down menu that opens up with an option for count or duration with a place to enter a number. No day of the week. That's it, That's all that's there. So I set the duration for zero. Youtube still works. I set the count for zero. YouTube still works. My goal is to have it inaccessible six out of the 7 days each week. On day seven, I am willing to give myself unlimited access. Is that even possible here? I'm not uninstalling this extension just yet because I'm hoping that I'll get some feedback on how to operate it so it actually does prevent YouTube in some way. The simplicity is good for what I need, but it just can't be too simple. Help?

- (2025-02-16) Nashita Begum: Pretty good extension. I really like that the popup works pretty much instantaneously, it has proper tracking of Youtube links in a new tab and in the same tab. I also really like that you can block it based on number of videos watched, not just time, and the graph is pretty nifty.
