Less Distraction: A Chrome Extension for Focused Online Studying
Less Distraction is a free Chrome extension developed by JackSGP. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically listed under the Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension is designed to address the lack of self-discipline in young kids who need to study online.
The main purpose of Less Distraction is to prevent young kids from spending time on web pages that contain the word "game" in the hostname. This means that popular gaming websites like addictinggames.com will be blocked, ensuring a distraction-free studying environment. Instead of accessing these game sites, users will be redirected to educational websites through links provided by the extension.
It is important to note that Less Distraction is primarily intended for very young kids, as older children may be able to disable the extension on their own. The developer has made updates to the extension, such as adding chess-related sites to the whitelist and fixing a bug related to testing whether a website is in the whitelist.
Overall, Less Distraction is a useful tool for parents and educators who want to create a focused online studying environment for young kids. By blocking access to gaming websites, it helps promote self-discipline and encourages educational activities.
