## Description

This Firefox add-on helps you manage time-wasting websites by showing a warning before you navigate to them. You must confirm your visit and specify the amount of time you plan to spend on the site (default is 5 minutes). After the allotted time expires, the warning reappears.

Key features:

- Add or remove domains to apply this behavior (e.g., "<a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/3b0aa1a488ff9809554e48743a9b592944d358a0ffa3f88e394cd3ddfc36894b/http%3A//facebook.com" rel="nofollow">facebook.com</a>").
- Free and open-source with source code available on GitHub.
- No tracking, data collection, or telemetry.

I created this small project to curb my own time-wasting habits without the tracking found in similar extensions. Feel free to send me PRs for feature improvements. Thank you, and enjoy.
