Description

Mind Matter is an educational Chrome extension that blocks blacklisted pages, granting access only if a trivia question is answered correctly. It aims to deter excessive usage of distracting websites and to help users learn or reinforce their knowledge about academic subjects.

This software is for people who struggle to stay focused on their work, and are also curious for learning.

Please note that this is release is mostly demonstrational. Future features are described on Github issues. I also need help with writing more questions!

# Rationale

The psychologist Daniel Kahneman describes two systems of thinking. "'System 1' is fast, instinctive, and emotional; 'System 2' is slower, more deliberative, and more logical." (Wikipedia)

Surfing the Internet tends to be unproductive. The objective of Mind Matter is to disrupt cognitive ease and force users to perform system 2 thinking.

# Changelog

See https://github.com/jennydaman/mindmatter/releases

This project is both ad-free and open-source.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
