Accessibility First DevRel. I focus on ensuring content created, events held and company assets are as accessible as possible, for as many people as possible.
So ColorZilla is awesome, I use that too! But the PowerToys thing is handy when you are outside the browser. Also having a keyboard shortcut is is super handy.
Never heard of forest app - will look at that, didn't realise they had a phone blocker now!
How do you use GateKeeper to temporarily block apps being launched? (perhaps I should have made that clear!) I haven't had a Mac for a couple of years now but if they added that feature that is awesome!
Let me know how you get on with CoPilot - I have been enjoying the varying pro-con arguments going around at the moment!
Edit - added a sentence to explain Cold Turkey blocks on a schedule rather than permanently!
Well, I don't set a schedule yet for GateKeeper. I just start it when I need, and end it when I need. I have enough willpower to stop me from abusing it!
If you have low willpower, you can use the terminal commands sudo spctl --disable --label "BlockedApps" and sudo spctl --enable --label "BlockedApps" and maybe setup a cron job for these to run to make a schedule...
If you have even less willpower, and wanna stop installs of apps, you could sudo spctl --disable --label "Mac App Store"
And if you have even less willpower, you could make sudo not work temporarily, by putting this in your sudoers file:
<username> ALL = ALL, !/usr/sbin/spctl
which would prevent you from using sudo. And if you have even...
I'll stop here :D.
