Dopa Blocker begins by stripping the Facebook webpage of its bright red notification counter before the page loads. You'll still see a bright white notification icon to indicate you have unread notifications, but won't get the same dopamine hit as seeing the counter in candy-red.
Earlier this year (2018), Sean Parker, the founding president of Facebook, revealed that the social network was founded non to unite us, but to distract us. “The thought process was: ‘How do we consume as much of your time and conscious attention as possible?’”
Ask yourself, how often did you visit Facebook.com out of casual habit and stuck around for a bit longer just so you could find out what's behind the bright red notification counter? It's a vulnerability in human psychology, that Facebook exploits to get a little hit of dopamine.
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!
