Fovely vs LeechBlock NG
LeechBlock NG gives you precise rules: which sites, when, and for how long. Fovely asks one question instead: what are you working on?

The difference
How they work
Rules vs a goal
LeechBlock NG is a toolbox: up to 30 block sets, each with its own schedule, time limit and exceptions. If you know exactly what should be blocked when, nothing is more precise. Fovely skips the rules: you type your goal, and it decides video by video and page by page.
Local vs checked
LeechBlock NG runs entirely in your browser. Fovely sends titles (never full URLs or your history) to its server during a session to decide what fits, and needs a Google sign-in.
Blocking vs motivating
Fovely adds sessions with a timer, breaks, a weekly leaderboard with friends and share cards, so staying focused also feels like progress.
Which one
Pick what fits
LeechBlock NG is the better choice if
- You want exact rules and time limits, and to write them yourself.
- You want everything to stay in your browser, with no account.
- You want a free tool with no paid tier at all.
Fovely is the better choice if
- You don't know in advance which pages will distract you, only what you're working on.
- You need sites like YouTube for the work itself.
- You'd like sessions, progress and friends to keep you going.
