User reviews

Awesome extension. Allows for still searching for youtube videos you need to watch while not getting distracted by the feed. Or messaging people you need to message on instagram, linkedIn, facebook, and hiding the feed completely.

I really appreciate the concept behind Antidote. Too often I get distracted by useful tools that come with algorithm-driven, distracting content (wasted a lot of time on mindless scrolling). Antidote helps me stay focused on what truly matters and keeps me on track with my goals!

Thank you for making this. I just installed it, and can already tell it is going to be so helpful. The fact I can visit the biggest time-waster sites and not see any distracting information, only the information I need, is amazing!
