ScreenCurb:Keywords to Block Sites
Kill distractions before your willpower does
ScreenCurb:Keywords to Block Sites launched on March 27, 2026 with 1 votes, #8,013 of 23,380 launches that month.
What it does
Set your distraction keywords — YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Reddit. The moment you visit a matching site, ScreenCurb kills your browser process. No warning. No "are you sure?" popup. The tab is gone. The key feature is Force Mode: lock everything down for a set period. You can't quit the app, can't uninstall it, can't remove blocked keywords — only add more. You threw away the key. On purpose. Built by a solo developer who lost years of deep work to "just a quick scroll."

Scream to Unlock – Blocks social media until you scream “I'm a loser”2025 · ▲242Hi all, I kept wasting time on social media, even though I’d promised myself I’d stay focused. Regular site blockers didn’t help. I needed something that felt annoying enough to break the habit. That’s how the idea came up: make the blocker ask me to say something embarrassing out loud before it lets me back in. If I actually have to yell “I’m a loser” into my mic. Even better - the louder I screamed, the more time I’d get. So I put together Scream to Unlock. It’s silly, but so far it’s done its job. My social feeds stay locked unless I really want them.

ScreenBreakDec 2025 · screenbreak.app · ▲125Hi HN, I built ScreenBreak after realizing that most app blockers failed in practice. “Hard blocks” were too rigid — I either locked myself out entirely or tapped Ignore Limit and kept scrolling. There was no useful middle state. In reality, people still need to open apps like TikTok or Instagram for specific tasks: looking something up, replying to someone, checking updates, etc. The problem isn’t intentional use; it’s the unplanned, unconscious scrolling that follows. I wanted a system that interrupts the impulse without fully preventing access. ScreenBreak uses soft blocking plus…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
