Just to add to this...
- Microsoft does their screen time controls really well, visually (see here), for an entire week's worth of controls. It might be worth considering if there's a medium between MS' implementation and FocusMe's (which involves a bit more clicking to get to each day's controls) that takes the best of both worlds?
- LeechBlock additionally has a feature I'll call "Block when time limit is up AND/OR inside blocked hours" which is really handy. You don't have to use it at all, but one of the options allows you to easily set up a scenario where Website X is available for your time limit (say, 15 mins) within the hours you select (say 9am-5pm) and is otherwise free. The other option lets you set Website X to be available for your time limit (15 mins) within all hours EXCEPT those you select (say 9am-5pm), and is banned during those hours.
So this is nice for situations where either there's a site you want to be able to visit a lot, just not during work hours... or where you want it to be banned completely within work hours and still limited outside of them. This is achievable with FocusMe, but not without (to my understanding) having multiple plans in place for the same sites... I wonder if FocusMe could have this kind of power within a single plan, using a similar option.
