Hocus Pocus Focus – A better browsing habit — Van Moose

Some habits just happen. You open a new tab and you're three headlines deep before you decided to be. The news will always be there, and almost none of it is something you can act on — an hour later you know more, and nothing about your life has changed.

Hocus Pocus Focus puts something else in that moment. You choose the sites that pull you in, and you choose where you'd rather land: Duolingo, Khan Academy, a course you're halfway through, a chess puzzle, sheet music, anything with a URL. When you reach for the old habit out of reflex, you arrive at the new one instead.

It doesn't lecture you and it doesn't count streaks. It changes the destination, so the same five minutes you were going to spend anyway leave you a little better at something you actually chose. That adds up — and the people around you get the better version of you too.

How it works: add the sites you want redirected, set your destination, done. Nothing is redirected until you add a site yourself, and you can change or clear the list at any time.
