That's literally the best. I recommend creating a long 100+ character password, print it and place it in a safe place to avoid changing settings often or making it harder to disable. Donate to the creator if you're able to

It's just the best. Screw all those paid productive blockers that don't even have a functioning blacklist & whitelist. This one is all you need.

I tried all site blockers, this one is my favourite
