I actually really love that there's more people focusing on this problem. Its one a friend of mine also tried to address, with https://enterflow.app/

As someone with extreme ADHD, this has made my life so much easier and reduced my tab clutter.

I love how this is so hot-key rich, I think like everyone else has kind of mentioned I wish we had chrome extensions, last pass, editthiscookie etc. It's the pro vs con of going extension vs full blown browser.

One of the other hurdles I've encountered is restricted installs by internal companies due to "security" reasons.

I am gonna be giving this a go for the next few days and see how I adapt to it.

Seriously love the fact this is becoming a focus for people.



Today I decided to check out the state of Microsoft Edge after installing Windows 11 and it felt like I am fighting the browser to stop throwing stuff on me in order to focus and just do the work I want to do. News section, sports, suggestions flooded me. The address bar tapping both bookmarks and history spits a dozen lines on every keypress assuming things.

I'm not even diagnosed with ADHD and I'm still tired that I have to spent time configuring things to fix a user experience more aligned with the company behind the browser than my needs. And I only covered the things I am allowed to touch with a little googling, not the ones I just have to accept as inevitable.

A browser that helps me go straight into what I want? Sign me up!


Alas, the state of the tech advertising industry…

Honestly, it’s all so exhausting I’m just so damn tired. You can’t even buy an OS anymore that isn’t loaded to the brim with bloat and spyware—provided BY THE MANUFACTURER nonetheless.

Honestly, once Windows ten is end Of life I’m done with tech industry.

I’ll go to the library and read some books; I’ll use a pen/pencil; I’ll wander, blissfully into the sunset.


Why, there's Linux.


I agree Linux is great—and I shall continue to use the OS. But the online ads are even more exhausting than desktop-bound ads no matter which browser, no matter which ad blocker, no matter which OS. Not just ads but those annoying “cookie” banners …

And let me just say: God help those who frequent TikTok… Their minds will be mush 2.0.


Enable EasyList cookie filter for your Ad Blocker (uBlock Origin in Firefox highly recommended). This has drastically cut down number of banners I see.


Your "Add Flow to Firefox" Link results in a 404 for me. It links to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/enter-flow/.


Not mine, but I'll pass the message on to the friend. I know they're focused on some other areas now. Thanks!


I've been working on adding better support for browser extensions in Electron. It's an absolutely necessary feature for web browsers. Maybe OP can have a look: https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-chrome-extensions


it's giving 404 when you try to download it
