Prod — Block Distractions & Be Productive

About

Prod is a simple, powerful productivity extension that helps you stay focused by blocking distracting websites and removing addictive elements (like YouTube recommended feeds). Whether you’re working, studying, or simply trying to avoid time‐sink rabbit holes, Prod lets you take control of your online experience.

Key Features:

Hide Distractions
- Turn off recommended videos, comments, or Shorts on YouTube.
- Silence clutter.

Block Sites
- Instantly block major distractions like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and adult sites.
- Add your own custom URLs to the block list.
- If you visit a blocked site, you’ll be redirected to a sleek “Blocked by Prod” page.

Greyscale Mode
- Transform the entire web into a calmer, colorless environment.
- Perfect for those who need fewer visual triggers when working or studying.

Minimalist UI
- A clean interface with toggle switches for each feature—no clutter, no confusion.
- Quickly turn Prod on/off or tweak settings right from the extension popup.

Timer
- Set a custom timer to keep yourself on task and lock certain settings until time’s up.
