Monk Mode blocks the feeds that eat your focus

I built Monk Mode because I kept losing whole work sessions to "just checking" YouTube Home, Shorts, X For You, Reddit front pages, and random feed loops on Mac.

It is a macOS app that blocks the distraction surfaces, not the whole internet.

What it blocks:

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

Why I made it:

  • I wanted fewer stupid context switches
  • I wanted something that felt strict but not fake
  • I wanted a tool that helps you ship, not another productivity app that becomes a distraction

Price: $15 lifetime
Site: mac.monk-mode.lifestyle

If you are building on a Mac and your attention keeps getting mugged by feeds, this is for you.
