Not a "don't use it" tool.
A small space, placed before your decision.
PauseTab inserts a brief overlay between you and the websites you reflexively open, turning impulse clicks into deliberate choices.

What it does
- A short overlay before you open a target site — a breath, not a block
- Per-site daily caps (e.g. up to 30 min)
- "Open for N minutes" session timer
- Schedule rules — auto-switch modes by time of day
- Stats: how often you stepped back, plus a 7-day trend
- Snooze interventions (15 min / 1 hour / rest of today / until released)
- Redirect: open an alternative page instead of the target site
