I built a Mac app that blocks the feeds that steal your day

Monk Mode is a Mac app for people who open YouTube for one thing and lose an hour.

It blocks:

  • YouTube Home and Shorts
  • X For You
  • Reddit front pages
  • other feed-style distraction pages

It is not a browser blocker. It is for the exact places that turn into doomscrolling.

Why I built it: I wanted a simple way to keep attention on shipping, not on feeds.

If you want to try it, it is at https://mac.monk-mode.lifestyle

$15 lifetime.

If you have other feed distractions you want blocked, I am still adding targets.
