CLUSTER BROWSER-EXTENSION-DISTRACTING · 25 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-13
Browser focus extensions
This cluster comprises browser extensions that reduce distractions by filtering or blocking content on social and media sites, as well as blocking entire websites to aid focus. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only four dated entries predate the index, so the cluster predates the index or its members are undated. Traction leaders by activity signal are youtube-shorts-blacklist (6 stars), jev-yt-time-saver (5 stars), and freestudocu (1 star).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
