Help with doom scrolling and anxious browsing. Stop doom scrolling. Browse with intention. Blankie is a mindful browsing extension that gently pauses you before visiting distracting or anxiety-inducing websites — giving you a moment to check in with yourself before heading down a rabbit hole. How it works When you navigate to a site on your blocked list, Blankie shows a calm interstitial screen that asks how you're feeling. Pick a mood, take a breath, and then decide: skip it, find something better, or go ahead with intention. Features 🌿 Block distracting sites & topics — Reddit, Twitter/X, news sites, or any URL pattern you choose 😌 Mood check-in — reflect on how you're feeling before you scroll ⏱ Mindful timer — a short pause (you set the length) before you can proceed 📊 Scroll tracker — see how much time you're spending on autopilot browsing 💛 Happy list — redirect yourself to sites that actually make you feel good 🎯 Activity suggestions — get nudged toward real-life alternatives when you're bored 💸 Time cost calculator — see the real cost of your scroll sessions if you set an hourly rate 🔔 Doom scroll nudges — gentle reminders when you've been scrolling too long Your privacy, always Blankie works 100% offline. No accounts. No servers. No data ever leaves your device. Everything — your blocked sites, mood history, scroll sessions — is stored locally and only used to power the extension's features. Great for Anyone trying to reduce anxiety-driven browsing People working on digital wellbeing habits Parents setting up healthier browsing for their family Anyone who's ever opened Twitter "for a second" and lost an hour
