I wrote a Firefox extension called Be Still that blocks traffic from social media websites I need to get myself off of. Right now it’s not published (you can still check it out on GitHub) and it only shows an image, but I’d like to make it more mental health focused going forward. I’d also like to support Chrome, Safari and Edge too.
But right now it’s something. Ironically enough, it was difficult to develop extension because my mind was on fire the whole time. I still don’t have a great system for planning out work — sometimes I cope fine and my brain can keep everything organized, other times it can barely focus on one thing. I’m hoping this extension is a step in a direction that supports people like me, and maybe it can give me ideas for building other tools I might need.
I haven’t written in this blog recently — was a bit held up trying to get my Ghost blog ported. Instead I think I should just keep writing these posts and not worry about importing the past. If there’s ever a time for me to need writing, it’s now.
