User Reviews

Overall, users praise Distraction Free Reddit for effectively blocking content and reducing doom scrolling, while appreciating its configurability. It works well for many, but some users report it doesn’t work at all or has OS-specific issues (notably Windows 11). A common wishlist item is finer-grained controls like per-subreddit whitelisting. The extension is well-received but not universally reliable across all systems.

Pros

Blocks most Reddit content (including comments) to reduce doom scrolling.
Works as advertised and reliably performs as described.
Adds friction to Reddit, helping users avoid long, aimless browsing and save time.
Offers many options and is highly configurable, including sidebar behavior and other settings.

Cons

Not working for some users (reports of it doing nothing).
Compatibility issues on Windows 11, with some users experiencing limited or no functionality there.
Lacks fine-grained customization (e.g., per-subreddit whitelisting or more granular sidebar controls), a commonly requested feature.

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to.

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
