First of all, thanks for the good work of reviving this very useful chrome extension.

I am having the following issue: whenever I open a new tab from a junk site (e.g. http://facebook.com) or when I access another URL within the same domain (e.g. http://facebook.com/myprofile) the delay is applied once again.

I don't know if it is intended, but what I think would be the best solution in this case is the delay should not be applied as long as we have at least one open tab of the respective junk site.

Then, if at some point all tabs of the junk site were closed, the next time we open one the delay should be applied again.

Does this make sense?
Thanks for your attention and support.

Edit: Another extension named Delayed Gratification has a functionality that addresses this problem of blocking new tabs: it is possible to set up a timer that only blocks new open junk sites after a configured interval. This let's you access the junk site and keep opening new tabs freely for a while.

There is code in dimmer.js which watches the URL for changes, watchUrlChanges, allowing the dimmer to be re-triggered when navigating within a SPA. Unfortunately, this code assumes that the page is still in the junk list. This may not be true, particularly if you have a path in your junk domain.

An example scenario:

• You have youtube.com/watch in your junk list
• You watch a video on youtube, triggering the dimmer
• You click on a button to some other youtube feature which is not on the junk list (e.g., home, or your subscription list, etc.)
• The dimmer is re-triggered, even though the current URL is not considered junk

I'm planning on opening a PR to address this later in the week.

Basically, is there any way to block example.com without blocking example.com/custom/page.html?

Hello - I am a Product Designer hopeful that is looking to offer UX support / redesign for the Settings / Statistics menus on spec. Without a way to send private messages I thought this would be the most appropriate place to start a conversation. Thoughts?

I think it would be useful if, rather than timing out individual sites and allowing the rest of the internet through, we could tick a box to block everything except for some specified sites. There are way too many distracting sites out there to catch all of them, but there's a pretty much finite number of non-distracting sites.

This would be nice to have.

If you right click on a link (that is not a junk site) within a junk site and select "Open in new tab", the extension will apply the delay to the new tab.
