Why I built Monk Mode

I built Monk Mode because I kept losing entire workdays to a feed I opened for “just a minute.”nnThe app is not about being dramatic. It is about making the default path less slippery. If a tool is designed to pull you back in, willpower alone is a bad defense.nnWhat I wanted was simple:n- block the worst distractions at the feed leveln- make it annoying enough to break autopilotn- keep the app light enough that I would actually leave it onnnThe bigger lesson for me: focus tools should reduce decisions, not add another dashboard to manage.nnI am building Monk Mode for people who want fewer rabbit holes and more shipping.nnIf you have your own rituals for protecting deep work, I would love to hear them.
