Phenomenal tool. I have stopped scrolling Facebook trash and feel like I have my life back. And I love the quotes too. I have gone down many Wikipedia rabbit holes from researching the authors.

I absolutely love this and I think it's not advertised enough. Many people probably would use it. One note: it would be nice if the names of authors of the quotes would be exact, for example Maria Skłodowska-Curie.

Exactly what I was looking for - a simple effective way to protect my focus. Thank you!
