Description

ReDD Focus (formerly Viking Focus & MindShield) is an open-source browser extension we built to help ourselves be less distracted online. It lets you hide distracting elements on any website, with pre-configured options for a number of sites, including YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram. For example, on YouTube you might want to hide recommended videos, on Facebook you might hide the newsfeed and ads in the sidebar, and on Google Search you might want to hide or highligt ads. You have full control over what is hidden. Simply click the extension icon in the browser toolbar to select elements to hide, and save your preferred settings. To help hold yourself accountable, you can also add a delay time to change the settings. Everywhere you go on the internet, something tries to grab your attention. This extension gives you back control. Enjoy! - Ulrik, Konrad, Tiago, and the Reduce Digital Distraction Project (reddfocus.org) NOTE: the extension is open source and collects zero user data.
