Features & Capabilities

There are extremely addicting websites that you may want to block for your digital wellbeing, but you can't actually block them entirely because you need some parts of them. You just want to block the algorithm-recommended feed!

For example, on Reddit, I want to be able to see individual posts so that I can get good answers to Google searches. But I don't want to ever see the homepage or subreddit pages, because those are a never-ending feed of content which is extremely addictive to me.

Right now, this only works on Reddit. I'll add more sites as needed!

User Reviews

This is awesome! Thank you for making it. I used to do a timer for reddit but then I'd always disable it when I needed to click on a reddit link to Google something and I'd be back to doom scrolling. This is exactly what I was looking for!

Is Zero Recs Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Zero Recs requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Zero Recs has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
