I built Monk Mode to block the feeds that steal your day

I built Monk Mode because I kept opening YouTube Home, Shorts, X For You, and Reddit front pages when I should have been shipping.

Monk Mode is a Mac app that blocks feed-style distractions at the source.

What it blocks:

  • YouTube Home and Shorts
  • X For You
  • Reddit front pages
  • other feed distractions that turn into accidental doomscrolling

Why I made it:
I did not want a motivation app. I wanted a hard stop between me and the stuff that hijacks attention.

It is a one-time $15 purchase. If you want a simpler way to protect deep work on Mac, this might help.
