Great extension, it does successfully stop me from doomscrolling, too bad there isn't a mobile version. It would be nice if the time options were customisable though, and if the counter was per site. Also, it's possible to click the buttons through the delay screen, so if it's doing pixelated for 8 seconds I can just press continue and 5 minutes without it having been 8 seconds yet, if that makes sense. So it would be good if that was fixed.

Although I really love the concept of this extension, and enjoy using it often I've grown very frustrated with how much this extension constantly breaks. Every couple days, I have to reinstall this extension because it'll just randomly stop working. And now the extension won't work at all! Whenever I try to click it, it just shows a small white box that I can't interact with. Even though I've tried reinstalling it, it just remains this small white box. Regardless of how many times I send feedback through the app and through their website, nobody gets back to me! Overall good concept, but it's unusable due to how broken the extension is!
