- Added a button to the main screen that toggles all domains
- Added more keyboard shortcuts: toggle selected domain via Spacebar, add a new domain using ⌘N and toggle all domains with ⇧⌘T. These actions are also available through the app menu
- Fixed an issue when sometimes disabling all domains wouldn't actually disable them all
Ratings and Reviews
Domain entries are a bit finiky. Otherwise great
Overall the app is solid. However, the domain entry has to have the correct prefix otherwise it may not get blocked. In my case i had to add 'www.' before the website name for it to work. I originally tried 'http://website.com' and 'https://website.com' and just 'website.com' and those didn't get blocked as i could still access 'website.com'. Also is there no way to delete a domain entry? Not a big deal but would be nice to have for sure.
Developer Response ,
Hey, thanks for the review! Yes, domains might be a bit finicky due to redirects performed by the websites. I usually recommend using *website.com as a mask that catches most of them. Regarding removing a site, you should be able to right click (or Control click) the row and select the Delete option. If that doesn't work for some reason, just highlight the row by clicking it once, and press the Delete key on the keyboard.
Best website blocker
This has got to be the best website blocker I've ever used! No cost, and it's extremely effective. No bugs either!
However, I think there could be the option to turn all websites on/off at same time. Also, as a person that goes to lots of distracting websites, I think a keyboard shortcut for the ' ' button would be nice.
But it's still great!
Developer Response ,
Hey, thanks a lot! I actually just pushed an update that implements the new "Toggle All" button and adds keyboard shortcuts for those. Cmd + N to add a new domain, and Cmd + Shift + T to toggle all. It should become available shortly, hope you find it useful.
Actually wut I needed
Perfect extension for me since so many sites have an annoying thing where they open a new tab with some kinda random sus website that keeps redirecting you over and over with a ton of weird stuff.
