Is anyone aware of a good open source app blocking app for Mac?
I’m having a hard time finding something that’s not proprietary from a general search.
What I’m looking for is one where you can block apps for a set duration. For example: You’re studying and you want to block access to chat apps, Ice Cubes for Mastodon, etc for, say, an hour.
I’ve found browser extensions to block specific websites and the one I use is great. But, looking for one for the apps themselves.
they don’t work because you can just uninstall them or turn them off. Unless you give someone else admin access, you’re able to remove the block.
or pick up your phone.
or use a different computer.
or visit the web address instead of using the app.
Set a timer and stick with it.
As someone who uses an app like this: no, you don’t do that. Because people are able to recognize that they downloaded the app to help themselves.
Just because there’s a workaround to the block doesn’t mean people are going to use it.
And quit being an ass. This person is just asking for help.
