Remove distracting elements from web pages to boost productivity with NoFasel, a browser extension that minimizes visual clutter and improves focus.
NoFasel is a browser extension available for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge that helps minimize distractions when browsing the web. It works by removing visual elements from web pages that may divert attention or disrupt focus, allowing users to concentrate better on the main content.
Once installed, NoFasel can be turned on and off with a single click. When enabled on a web page, it hides things like comments sections, sidebar recommendations, in-feed ads, pop-ups, banners, and other non-essential parts that surround the core article or video. This helps declutter pages and prevents users from getting drawn into rabbit holes.
The extension has customizable settings to target specific distracting components on sites like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and more. Users can choose to hide all or just some distractors on their favorite sites. Everything happens quietly in the background - the underlying page layout is unchanged, only the distracting elements are obscured from view.
Early testing shows NoFasel can help boost productivity in work contexts when there are lots of potential digital diversions. It may also benefit students trying to focus on research, people with distractibility issues like ADHD, or anyone looking to minimize non-essential stimuli during reading, watching videos, or browsing informational sites.
The tool is free and open-source software. It does not collect any user data. NoFasel runs locally in the browser and is available on the Chrome Web Store, Firefox Add-ons site, and Microsoft Edge Add-ons marketplace.
