Why First Why First מאת

Why First is a mindful browsing extension that introduces brief, intentional friction before you enter distracting websites — turning mindless surfing into a conscious choice.

Most website blockers rely on hard restrictions that are easily bypassed, ignored, or turned off during work. Why First takes a calm, soft-friction approach: before opening user-designated websites, it pauses to ask a simple question — "Why are you visiting this website right now?"

Taking 5 seconds to clarify your intention breaks the dopamine feedback loop, helping you stay focused on what truly matters without stressful rigid blocking.

KEY FEATURES:
1. Mindful Intent Confirmation: A clean pause screen prompts your intention before opening distracting sites.
2. On-Device Privacy: 100% local storage. Zero analytics SDKs, zero trackers, zero cloud browsing data.
3. Flexible Rules: Instant rule configuration with exact domain and wildcard subdomain support.
4. Optional AI Intention Evaluation: Optional on-device or private assistance to evaluate reason alignment.

QUICK START:
1. Pin Why First to your Firefox toolbar.
2. Open Settings -> Rules tab and add distracting sites.
3. Experience your first mindful pause.
