uBlock Filters for Social Media


The uBlock Origin filter list that hides all distractions on major social media platforms to make usage less addictive and more focused. This filter list is designed to remove elements like endless scrolling, video recommendations, pop-ups, and other features. By eliminating these distractions, the list aims to help users regain control over their time and attention while using platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, and more.



This filter list offers a simple yet effective way to be more productive. It is fully customizable, allowing users to selectively block or hide various elements to suit their individual needs.
