Ask HN: Browser scripts to keep yourself from getting distracted
What browser scripts do you use? E.g. GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey scripts.
Some scripts I have:
1. Redirect NYTimes home page to Today's Paper
if (window.location.href === "https://www.nytimes.com/") window.location.href = "https://www.nytimes.com/section/todayspaper"
I read the NY Times but find myself getting distracted by the constantly updating home page.2. Block sites (e.g. Twitter)
document.body.style.display = "none";
3. Turn off websites after 12am (to make me go to bed earlier) (function() {
function turnOff() {
// 12am - 5am
const turnOn = 5;
const now = new Date();
const hours = now.getHours();
if (hours < turnOn) document.body.style.display = "none";
}
window.addEventListener('click', turnOff)
window.addEventListener('load', turnOff)
})();
