- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14628236, 6 years agoI've been using leechblock for years. Great functionality, really improved my productivity. I recommend it to all my students.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14616129, 6 years agoOh, performance... After deleting this add-on a CPU usage becomes 0-3% again (but it was 30%!)

posted 6 years agoThanks for the review. Sorry to hear about the performance issue. I've had a few reports of it, but not enough to trace the problem. Please consider posting this as an issue on GitHub (see support page) so I can gather more info. Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14606161, 6 years agoReliable and doesn't slow down my browser experience/performance in any way. I've used LeechBlock for years and it has kept me from succumbing to meaningless web browsing. Thank for for being free and doing a great job.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14602598, 6 years agoI really like the extension. It has all of the features that I require. My only issue is that twice now it deleted all of the blocks, settings, that I wrote for it, so I had to start with it from the beginning. Both times happened after I did some update..
Update: It seems this has been fixed. 5 stars for an awesome extension which helps keep me productive - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14598956, 6 years ago[Edited] Nice plugin which works as expected AND has good support. Note: For the override feature to work, be sure to enable "[X] Allow temporary overrides" in options. This has stumped me, but the dev looked into it and figured out my problem, which means extra points for support. :-)
- Rated 4 out of 5by geeforr, 6 years agoGreat addon, but not recommended for laptop users, as it seems to eat CPU. Loading up the about:performance tab shows LeechBlock consistently consuming huge amounts of CPU whilst doing nothing. Had to reluctantly uninstall it.

posted 6 years agoThanks for the review. LeechBlock definitely shouldn't be consuming huge amounts of CPU! It should have only Low/Medium Energy Impact in about:performance. I would like to learn more about your setup to figure out why you experienced that issue. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14597032, 6 years ago
