This Chrome extension helps you break free from endless scrolling while keeping Reddit’s useful features accessible. It blocks feeds but still lets you open comment threads from external links (e.g., Google search, shared links).
Features:
✅ Smart Blocking – Stop infinite scrolling without fully blocking Reddit
✅ Whitelist – Allow access to specific subreddits
✅ Blacklist – Block distracting subreddits entirely (feeds & comments)
Reddit is both a productivity tool and a time sink. This extension helps you stay focused by eliminating distractions while preserving its utility.

Block access to Reddit

Block subreddits from feeds such as /r/all and /r/popular
The extension achieves what it sets out to do, albeit there are some improvements that can be made. 1) The extension does not work effectively on the current UI of Reddit ("new Reddit"). If you go on a Reddit post and then click on a feed/user profile, the extension doesn't recognise the change and you'd have to refresh the site for the extension to block. This issue does not exist on "old Reddit". 2) The blocking isn't immediate. Both on "old Reddit" and "new Reddit" the extension takes a few seconds to activate, this is an issue as it allows users to take a peep at the feed or user profile which could lead to them disable the extension to pursue what they had saw further. If requested, I can record these issues in demonstration and provide a unlisted YouTube link. I have not set any subreddits to be whitelisted or blacklisted.
Works as expected! Glad I found this extension EDIT: Would be nice if we could add "Pause for 5 minutes" because sometimes there is a need to open something for urgent things for which disabling the whole extension is not a good idea.
Reddit killed my family. But with this help from the chrome web store, some justice of note may at last be done.
Good
definitely reduced the amount of time I get sidetracked on the site
I like this! I am definitely more locked in!!
this is the best extension ive seen in my life, thank you.
It doesn't allow me to see who replied to me, my settings, etc.
this is great. thanks for implementing this. One thing is the font of the text in the posts seems to be changed after installing.
Btw the suggested posts are still visible on the right sidebar in incognito on Desktop (with extension enabled for Incognito). Also, could you hide the front page's content instead of redirecting, like how the "Unhook - Remove YouTube Recommended & Shorts" extension hides the YouTube main page content without changing the URL. Thank you.
