BlockItOut | Digital Noise Cancellation

Social media engineering is designed to interrupt your flow state. BlockItOut is a tool that strips away the addictive "sugar" (Shorts, Reels, Suggested Feeds) from Instagram and YouTube, leaving you with a functional tool rather than a time trap.

Key Features:

📸 Instagram (Quiet Mode)

Safe Feed: Automatically hides Sponsored posts and "Suggested for you."

Blur Mode: Blurs images by default (hover to reveal).

Metric Hiding: Removes like and follower counts.

Black Box Mode: Turns addictive posts into static black boxes.

▶️ YouTube (Search & Destroy)

Ad Accelerator: Automatically speeds up and skips ads.

Shorts Nuke: Removes the Shorts shelf and tab.

Theater Focus: Fades out sidebar and comments while watching.

Stop Autoplay: Forces the "Autoplay" toggle to stay OFF.

🧠 Reality Check

Session Monitor: Tracks scrolling time and provides gentle reminders to take a break.

Privacy First: Zero data collection. All processing happens locally on your machine.
