I just tried it. Unfortunately it does not seem to work with my use case where I use youtube to play music in a background tab while working on other things. I want it to block me from actively watching videos but playback in the background is fine in my case.
- qiyuxuan96 7y agoThanks for the suggestion. I see, that's very valid. I've added it to our todo list - don't block if it's not the active tab.
- namelessone 7y agoCheck out Leechblock delaying page feature. There is a checkbox for "Count time spent on these sites only when browser tab is active"
- qiyuxuan96 7y agoThanks for recommending that. We actually do one better - we not only count time when browser tab is active, but also stop counting time when we don't detect activity or video playing for longer than 5 minutes :)
