Acerca desta extensão
Page Load Delay helps you break impulsive browsing habits by adding a countdown timer before loading specified websites.
How It Works
When you navigate to a configured domain, the extension intercepts the request and displays a visual countdown. Once the timer reaches zero, the page loads automatically. This added friction gives you a moment to reconsider whether you really need to visit that site.
Key Features
* Multiple Domain Groups - Create separate groups of websites, each with its own delay duration
* Flexible Delays - Configure delays from 1 to 300 seconds per group
* Subdomain Matching - Adding "twitter.com" automatically covers "www.twitter.com" and all other subdomains
* Clean Countdown UI - A minimal, dark-themed countdown page displays the remaining time
* No Delay by Default - Pages not in any configured group load instantly
Privacy & Permissions
This extension requires "Access your data for all websites" permission. Here's why:
* The extension must intercept page requests to show the countdown timer
* Since you can configure any domain, broad access is required
* Firefox's webRequestBlocking API requires this permission
What the extension actually does:
* Checks if the URL matches your configured domains
* Redirects matching requests to the countdown page
* That's it — no data is read, collected, stored, or transmitted
The extension is fully open source. Review the code at GitHub.
Example Setup
* Group 1 (30s): twitter.com, reddit.com, instagram.com
* Group 2 (60s): youtube.com, tiktok.com
* Group 3 (10s): news.ycombinator.com
Perfect for productivity, digital wellbeing, and breaking doomscrolling habits.
