Browse Less

The more you scroll, the more faded the page becomes. Break your browsing habit one scroll at a time.

What is Browse Less?

'Browse Less' is a unique Chrome extension that aims to curb excessive online browsing. As you scroll down on a website, the page slowly starts to fade, serving as a mindful cue for you to reduce browsing time and focus on productivity. The extension allows you to customise the fade amount and even enable or disable it on different websites. However, it only works on pages with Javascript enabled. The evolution of 'Browse Less' brought in features like adjusting fade amount and saving settings automatically. Each update aims to deliver a better user experience.

User reviews

Exactly what I was looking for! I already blocked the home feed on twitter using a different extension but I was still scrolling user feeds. FR: Might be nice to show motivational/urgency/time waste related quotes once the page becomes faded to a certain extend.
